Every Quilt Has a Story—Let's Preserve It!

Join us at our next meeting on Monday, June 8, at 6:30 p.m the OSU Extension Office, 2500 NE 63rd St., Oklahoma City, for a fascinating program: 

How to Make a Digital Memory.

Our presenter, Jared Mayoral, is a former Active Duty Marine, video storyteller, and heritage preservation advocate. Jared will share ways we can capture the stories, skills, inspiration, and love behind our quilts through video.

Imagine gifting a quilt along with a digital memory that tells future generations about the maker, the process, and the meaning behind the stitches. Jared's mission is to help preserve our quilting legacy and create lasting connections between quilts and those who cherish them.

Bring your curiosity and your ideas—we're looking forward to learning how technology can help our quilting stories live on for generations!

👋 Guests are always welcome! Your first meeting is free. If you'd like to continue attending meetings and enjoying all the benefits of our guild, membership is required after your initial visit.

We'd love to see you there!

Ready for some "Orphan Block" Magic?

🎨

Join us for a night of pure creativity—no sewing required! We’re dumping hundreds  of orphan blocks on the table, and it’s up to us to turn them into modern masterpieces.

• 🗓️ When: Monday, April 13th @ 6:30 p.m.

• 📍 Where: OSU Extension Office (2500 NE 63rd St, OKC)

• ✨ The Vibe: We’ll be working in small groups to find inspiration and encourage modern design. It’s basically quilter’s heaven!

What to bring:

• Your own orphan blocks to use or share.

• A portable design board (if you have one!).

• Pro-Tip: Bring some pre-made flying geese or checkerboard strips in your favorite colors to help tie your design together! (Black and white is also a stunning choice for modern improv).

Come ready for a boat-load of fun and plenty of "quilty" inspiration. See you there! 🧵✨

Curious About Modern Quilting? Come Visit Us!

If you’ve ever thought about joining the Oklahoma City Modern Quilt Guild, this is a great month to stop by and see what we’re all about!

Monday, March 9th — 6:30 p.m.

OSU Extension Office

2500 NE 63rd St

Oklahoma City

We’re excited to welcome guest speaker Patti Coppock Bucklin, who will be teaching a class to some of our members the day before the meeting. With any luck, we’ll get to see a few of their brand-new creations fresh from the sewing machine!

Guests are always welcome — your first meeting is free. After that, we’d love for you to officially join the guild. Membership dues are $50 per calendar year.

Our members will also be sharing their March Challenge: Notan art blocks, so you’ll get to see some beautiful (and sometimes surprising!) light-and-dark design magic.

And don’t worry if you’re “just looking.” Quilters are very friendly… especially when there’s someone new to admire their Show and Share creations!

Come check us out — you might leave inspired… and possibly thinking about your next quilt.

 

 

December Guild Meeting 

Let’s Get in the Sew-cial Spirit!

Monday, December 8 • 6:00 p.m. (note early time!)

OSU Extension Office | 2500 NE 63rd St, OKC

It’s time to piece together some holiday cheer! 

Join us for an evening of Holiday Friendship Fun as we visit, snack, and celebrate. 

Members are asked to bring sweet or savory appetizers—because nothing fuels creativity like good food and good friends!

We’ll also have a handmade holiday gift exchange (totally optional, but sew much fun!) and a festive round of quilt B-I-N-G-O. (Just be sure to bring a fat quarter for the game prizes—consider it your entry patch).

Come ready for fun, laughter, and all the cozy vibes. And while we promise there won’t be an actual cat at the meeting, we can’t rule out a few quilted cats sneaking into your fat quarters or gift exchange! 

Meowy Christmas!
