Our January meeting was held last Saturday.  It was a very rainy but mild day. A large contrast from the sub-zero weather we had been experiencing.  

We welcomed a couple of new faces.  Thank you for visiting us, Michelle and Lorraine!  We hope to see you both again.

For this month's show and share we brought our very first quilt.  Not everyone had their first quilt as many had been given away, but here is what was shared.  It was great to hear the stories of each of the quilts and to see how far we have all come!

In addition to the first quilts that were shared, there were some works in progress shared as well.

Michelle shared an image of the quilt pattern "Gypsy Wife" by Jen Kingwell as her modern inspiration.  For those of you who "oohed and aahed" over this quilt, click on the image below to order the pattern.

Happy New Year Everyone!

Our next meeting will be held 10am-12pm, January 11, 2014 at Hyggeligt Fabrics, 515 Richmond Street, Unit 3, London, ON N6A 5N4.

There is a BIG agenda this month:

• We will be collecting pieces for our community project.  Instructions are located on the "Members Only" section of the London Modern Quilt Guild website:  http://www.londonmodernquiltguildcanada.com/giving-back.html

           Note: If you wish to participate and do not have the instructions for this, please email Sheilagh atlondonmqgcanada@gmail.com and she can send the instructions to you.  We have not              posted the instructions publicly because they are copyrighted.  We have received permission from the designer, Denyse Schmidt to reproduce the pattern for this project only.

• For our show and share this month, bring your very first quilt to share with the group.
• Also, bring a piece of inspiration that may inspire you to make a modern quilt.  This could be an image, a piece of fabric, or anything else that inspires you.

Hope to see you next Saturday!
