We will have Show & Share where members (or guests) share recent finishes, as well as our monthly mini quilt challenge to use a repurposed fabric to make a mini quilt featuring a tree or leaf.

Workshop description:
Anyone intimidated by fabric selection? We will discuss the basics of color theory and how those concepts lead to better quilts! Students will leave armed with many tools for choosing colors. We will begin with a lecture and trunk show exploring different aspects of color theory in quilts. During the workshop, we will create different color palettes with problem fabrics and inspiration photos. You will have the option of creating either the circle color wheel or the dresden color wheel (see below for examples). Perfect for all level sewists.
