July 2020 Monthly Meeting

by

First meeting for KQG’s newly elected Board Members. Congratulations and best wishes for a successful year. 

Two new challenges were introduced. Mystery quilt by Sheryl Fowler and Mini Quilt inspired by your birth month by Rachel Peterson. Rohini Desai presented a very informative workshop about “Thread tension on domestic machines”. It was explained how to go about balancing the top and bottom thread tensions, as there are not standard settings, due to a number of variables i.e. threads, fabrics, batting, fusibles.

And no quilt meeting is complete without show and tell.

Manjushree Saudagar mastered the y seams technique at the KQG virtual workshop conducted by Rohini Desai in July.
Priyanka Jain was very proud to share her y-seams and the machine quilting skills. The virtual workshop for Le Moyne Star was conducted by Rohini Desai in July.
