Thursday, September 26 - DeStash
September is DeStash month!
Take some time to go through your stash and pack up any sewing related items that you no longer want or need to donate to the DMQG DeStash night at the September meeting. All raised funds will benefit DMQG and be used for programs and activities in 2023-2024.
WHAT TO DO:
Box or bag up your unwanted sewing related treasures, including fabric, notions, rulers, books, patterns, etc. Scraps can be in zip-lock bags.
HOW IT WORKS:
Volunteers will take your donations and sort by category.
You will purchase a canvas tote bag for $20 at the Merchandise table before the meeting or during the break.
During the break, you will be able to “window shop”. Shopping will start after the break.
Thursday, October 24 - The Zen Quilter
Our October guest speaker is Carrie Ottmers Wikander, aka the zen quilter
See below for Carries' bio:
I'm a former teacher who picked up quilting when my excellent mother talked me into trying it about 23 years ago. I was immediately hooked, and after attending my first Houston Quilt Festival the following year and realizing I could do whatever I wanted with fabric, I knew what I wanted to do when I grew up! I started designing my own quilts, and now that I'm retired from teaching, I get to do it full time. I still love to teach, only now I'm teaching fellow quilters. My style is eclectic and modern. I pretty much make my own rules up, mainly because my ideas have often far surpassed my skills, so I just figure out a way to do what I want. After all these years, quilting is still challenging, exciting and new.
November - No meeting
