Linda Hunter was our speaker this month. We all learned alot about quilt show judging. Linda has been a judge and been judged! Her lecture was very informative.
Next month Janet Root will be back to go over the many "basics" of quilting. Many of you have expressed interest in learning about squaring up, 1/4" seam, binding etc. Janet is known for her meticulous attention to these details.
July is our annual picnic (potluck style). We will also set up tables upstairs for a summertime flea market. It's a lot easier to transport all your cast-offs in nice weather, so bring your priced items and make some $$!
August will bring Ina Randall. She is a member of Amherst Quilt guild. I actually hunted her down at their quilt show last month to book her for a trunk show! You will be inspired by her work.
Create something wonderful to share with us next month!
A Place for members and friends of The Museum Quilt Guild of Batavia, NY to check up on Guild events.

After a rocky start to our April meeting we managed to quickly regroup and enjoyed a trunk show from Janet Root!
Our Liberated Quilt workshop after was wonderful. I will post pics of our time with Janet in a few days.
We welcome Linda Hunter in May. She will be telling us the things that quilt show judges look for.
In June Janet Root will be returning to take us through all the basics of quilting. Many people expressed interest in learning/reviewing just that, so plan on learning something new or refreshing our busy minds with tips that will help make quilting enjoyable!
Remember July we will have our annual picnic and we are adding a flea market. We know January weather is not conducive to transporting our treasures! Start setting things aside now, price them and you'll be ahead of the game!
