Education
Thank you to everyone who filled out a survey! If you did not get the opportunity to fill one out, reach out to us at orlandomodernquiltguild@gmail.com . We have received a lot of interest in wearable art, scrappy and machine applique, portrait quilts, back-to-basics, and bag making.
We have enough interest for another jacket class with Caroline! This will go up on the calendar shortly. Virtual date TBD, in person on March 21.
Sew Much Fun is willing to do an in-person class for our guild as long as we can get 10 people to register. Laura will work on coordinating a group.
Community Outreach
The QuiltCon quilt is finished! Thank you to all who worked on it and Priscilla for quilting it.
