February Meeting Recap

The guild met on Saturday February 18.  

Members dropped off quilts that are going to hang in our KMQG Quilt Show in March.  The Quilt Show will run from March 6th - 30th at The Emporium, 100 S Gay St., Knoxville, TN 37902.



Some other quilt shows in the area:

Our first Restoration House Project charity quilt gives members scope to choose their block - just so long as it includes one of the polka dot fabrics supplied, and as long as it is a star block.  The star blocks are due in at the April meeting - watch this space for pictures when those blocks come together.

An introduction was given to our 2023 QuiltAlong which members can do as a mystery if they wish.  We have two months to choose fabrics before getting started.

Thanks to everyone who filled in our survey about Retreats and Sew-ins.  These responses will be used to put together a program of events for the year.


As usual, we had a great selection of projects in the Show & Tell, including several 'Mystery Purple' mini quilts which will be on display at the Quilt Show.
