PEI Modern Quilt Guild November 2018 Sew-In

It has been wet, and windy lately on Prince Edward Island, but at least we can say that there is no snow here yet.  We had a little group of ladies come together for a day of sewing and playing with fabrics and patterns.

Janice stopped by in the morning to say hi. She has been very busy taking lots of workshops around PEI and New Brunswick. We can't wait to see the results from the latest workshop with Elaine Quehl

Janet has been having fun playing with scraps. She has been so inspired by the recent visit by Cheryl Arkison and this quilt in particular.


Mixing together her older fabrics with fun modern prints and solids will result in a fresh scrappy quilt. I can't wait to see it start coming together!!


She also shared this recently finished baby quilt. Sew adorable!!


Linda spent the day working on binding...


Lucinda is working on some scrappy string blocks in an effort to work on unfinished projects in 2018. These are going to be gorgeous!!


Jean had 2 patterns to share from her recent trip to Alberta. Which one will she start first???


Cathy was working on some Christmas themed aprons, for her upcoming family baking day.


We also had a guest come and visit with us. Dianne is interested in the Modern Quilt guild. She brought along a photo of this quilt and asked for our thoughts on it. We had lots of fun imagining how we would make it our own!!!


We look forward to getting to know her in the coming months. (Hopefully she will decide to join us in 2019).

It's not too late to purchase a raffle ticket for this gorgeous quilt!!!! We will be drawing the winner at the November 22nd meeting. If you would like to support the PEI Modern Quilt Guild and have a chance to win, please contact us: peimqg@gmail.com
