Thursday, September 25th - Allie from Exhausted Octopus
Allie McCathren started quilting in 2018 and is the founder of Exhausted Octopus.
Allie is an artist with a background in marine biology. She lives in Houston, TX with her three sons. Her love of science and nature tends to find its way into her work, whether she intends it or not.
Allie works primarily with fabric and thread, but is also a painter, working with acrylics and watercolors. She uses fabric as if it were paint, working with color arrangement and texture to create her art quilts. Allie is a modern quilter who uses a lot of improv techniques in her work.
Guests are welcome; however, there is a $10 fee for non-members due to the expense associated with bringing in a national speaker. The fee will be waived if you join the guild at the meeting.
Allie will also be teaching her Inside Out Quilt Workshop, details here!
Thursday, October 23rd - Amy from Sewn Handmade
Amy Schelle is the designer and founder of Sewn, where she creates modern quilt patterns and surface designs inspired by architecture, travel, and family. With a background in interior design, Amy blends clean, modern lines with the warmth of handmade tradition. Through her patterns, blog, and artful goods, she invites makers to connect with quilting in a fresh way—creating pieces that feel timeless, intentional, and deeply personal.
