August 6th Meeting News

You don’t want to miss our August 6th meeting! IEMQG member, Lynn Hanna is bringing us the SAQA Trunk Show (SAQA stands for Studio Art Quilt Associates. Learn more at saqa.com). We’ll get to see over forty mini art quilts like the ones featured above! We will spread them out on the tables for everyone to enjoy and we’ll discuss what makes them so wonderful.  While we are enjoying the quilts in person, members on Zoom will access a link with photos of all the quilts we are viewing. What a fantastic opportunity to become inspired.

We’ll also have show and share. Please bring your latest finishes, and don’t forget to send us a photo by Friday before the meeting to iemodernquiltguild@gmail.com so that Zoom participants can see your items too.

Be there at 1:30 to enjoy some social time. Meeting starts at 2 pm. We are
meeting at the Arlington Library, 9556 Magnolia, Ave, Riverside, CA 92503.
