Saturday, June 6 - Program: Lill Helming - “Pixelated, Not Pixillated” Quilt Trunk Show
Today our own Lill Helming will be our presenter. Lill majored in fibre arts in college studying weaving and fabric design, and interned at what was then known as the American Craft Museum in New York City. Post college, she pursued her love of fiber primarily through knitting and taught students of all ages for nearly four decades. About twelve years ago she made her first quilts, and was smitten with the craft. As a knitwear designer, relying on the pixelated methods to design colorwork, it was a natural transition to apply that method to quilting. Lill will take us through the design process, and inspire you to create your own pixelated designs during this “hands on” program.
Social at 9:30 am
Meeting at 10:00 am

Saturday, June 6 - Friendship Star Opportunity Block Is Due
Time for another opportunity block. This time we will be making the 12 1/2" Friendship Star in red, white and blue to celebrate the upcoming birthday of our country. Make as many as you like, bring them to the June meeting and you will receive one ticket for each block made. The more who participate the more the fun!
Saturday June 6 - Pixelated, Not Pixillated Workshop
For those staying for the workshop portion, we will then convert the designs made during the program portion into an actual project.
