Bluegrass Quilt Festival, Paroquet Springs Community Center, Shepherdsville, KY

Kay, Pam, Ossie, Kay and Janet enjoyed a fantastic pot-luck lunch. We had a great menu. It seems like forever since we had this many people come at the same time. New projects were started and some old ones finished and others just worked on. There were table runners, placemats and quilt tops.

Have a happy holiday weekend and we hope to see you on July 9th.

June 25th - Pot Luck Lunch

Bring a dish to pass and stay all day to sew. Even if you can't stay all day come for a while to get some inspiration, good company and a bite to eat.

Summer Schedule

The summer schedule starts in June. The community center does not keep regular hours on Saturdays during the summer. We will only be meeting when there is a rental. This schedule can and will change on a daily basis. If you are in doubt, call Sun Valley at 937-8802.

Kay McF came today. It was good to see her. She has been doing some quilting and was looking for more ideas.

Feb 5th Meeting

Check out the Spring Metro Parks Recreation Guide. Janet's Derby Quilt is on the cover! Also the windows at the Southwest Library are full of quilts.

Pam, Ossie, Kay and Janet took advantage of the extended hours to work on various projects. On some Saturdays we will be in the small room across from the restrooms. Some weeks we will have the option of moving to the back room when the children's dance classes are finished.

Quilters' Day Out is coming up on Sat March 12th. It will be at the same place as last year, The Ramada Plaza Hotel and Conference Center. You can see the latest information at http://quiltersdayout.blogspot.com/.

The warmer weather got a few people out on Saturday. Kay, Ossie, Pam and Janet were at the center. Kay brought this cute doll with clothes she had made. She cut out more clothes to make for it. Pam worked on her Grandmothers Flower Garden quilt that she is hand sewing. Ossie worked on an applique quilt she had started a while ago. Janet cut out fabric for a quilt her Fairdale group is making on Monday nights. She also laid out her Hawaiian quilt.

The center is a really busy. The dance class that took over our room has now split into 2 classes. There are rentals for most Saturdays in Feb. Next week, Feb 5th we will meet from 12:30pm - 7:00pm in the back room. There is a rental in the front and that is how we come into the building.

Quilt Photos Taken

There was a last minute change to the photo shoot. The photographer showed up today so I there to went home to get a few quilts. The picture is expected to be on the cover of the next bulletin. I expect a short blurb with the date and time we meet so we may get some quilters to join us.
