SUMMARY:The Magic of Foundation Paper Piecing - Nancy Messuri - 10/17/24
DESCRIPTION:Nancy Messuri is a self-employed Idaho-based quilt designer. Paper copies of her patterns are available through https://quiltwoman.com and pdf patterns through her website\, https://nancymessuridesigns.com. \nFoundation paper piecing is Nancy’s go-to method of constructing blocks and Electric Quilt 8 is her favorite design platform. Her trademark is intricate designs that require careful piecing\, but she sometimes breaks out of that mold with a less complex design when the mood strikes. \nIn 2023\, Nancy was selected to be a Benartex Ambassador along with ten other designers. As an ambassador for the international fabric supplier\, Nancy designed numerous products to be featured in Benartex publications and assisted in the Benartex booth at the Missouri Star Quilt Festival. Her relationship with Benartex as a designer continues to this day.  \nNancy’s quilt Criss Cross Stars was selected as the signature quilt for the 2023 International Quilt Festival Long Beach and was prominently featured on the cover of the program and all advertising materials. Along with Criss Cross Stars\, her quilt\, Ripple Effect\, hung at the 2023 International Quilt Festival Houston and was used extensively in promotions of that show. In addition\, her quilt\, Spinning Song\, will be hanging at International Quilt Festival 2024

SUMMARY:Carolyn Hutchinson-It's Magic! -- BBQ Membership Meeting and Program
DESCRIPTION:Carolyn Hutchinson\, owner and designer of Carolyn’s In Stitches will be sharing a “Mini\nTrunk Show”\, highlighting her series of patterns called “Magic Tricks”. Her designs are a\ncombination of traditional and modern. Many of her designs came from asking “What if…?”\nThis series of patterns is the perfect example. Attempting to simplify the piecing of a\ncomplicated design\, Carolyn created a technique that rendered a totally unexpected block.\nWhile the created block was initially not the desired result\, and some would have cast them\naside and started over\, she continued to play “What if?” \nThe result was the first quilt in this series called\, “Windfarm”. Continuing to experiment with\ncolor selection\, strip rotation and different combinations of both\, six additional quilts\nemerged. \nAll of these designs are made from a combination of 2 ½” and 5” strips\, with no small pieces.\nAfter the first seven in this series were published\, Carolyn experimented with using only 2\n½” strips and three additional patterns were “born”. These patterns were just released at\nher Spring Retreat. \nWhile Carolyn used lots of geometry and math in creating and writing these patterns\, all the\nhard work has been done\, leaving only very easy piecing that goes together quickly. Two of\nthe patterns\, “Hinged” and “Line Dancing” make two different quilts at the same time. \nIt’s Magic!

SUMMARY:BBQ Membership Meeting
DESCRIPTION:Dating Quilts\nby Joyce Shoemaker\, a representative of the Quilt Heritage Museum and an AQS Textile Appraiser \nThis presentation will cover an array of aspects which speak to many quilt eras. We will discuss clues to dating fabrics including fabric colors\, blocks\, styles\, popular trends\, and edge finishes\, to name a few. Viewers will see a number of Quilt Heritage Museum collection quilts representing different quilt time periods. Attendees are invited to bring a quilt of their own to get answers as to its circa date. \nJoyce has been a quilter for nearly three decades. In 2007\, she travelled to Paducah\, KY\, to take the exams\, and became an American Quilters’ Society Certified Textile Appraiser. Before that\, she presented quilting workshops on a variety of techniques in five Western states. Her personal quilts are heavily influenced by the array of nature and wildlife she sees while growing alfalfa on her farm in eastern Idaho.

SUMMARY:Membership Meeting
DESCRIPTION:KEYNOTE SPEAKER: DIANNE KANE\nQuilter and teacher Dianne Kane is coming to BBQ! Dianne has had a lifelong passion to be an artist. She was first introduced to quilting in 1998\, and has since become a versatile designer and maker of original quilts. \nAt the March guild meeting Dianne will present a trunk show entitled “Every Quilt Has A Story.” The trunk show features quilts inspired by books she read\, made during Dianne’s memberships in Cover to Cover\, Storytellers\, Art Quilt Group\, and Thread Tales. \nVisit Dianne’s website diannekane.com  to see a selection of her amazing quilts. \nQuilts that Diane will show during her trunk show diannekane.com/inspired-by-books\nList of books and quilts Books That Inspired Dianne Kane’s Quilts – March 2023 Program  \nArtist Statement\n“When I grow up\, I want to be an artist.” I kept repeating that mantra for decades. Then in 1998\, my cousin Judy introduced me to her quilt camp and the addiction hit. I love all parts of the quilting process: the vision\, the fondling of the fabric\, the cutting\, the combining\, the quilting\, and the standing back to enjoy. Currently I can’t say I like just one type of quilt. I’m still experimenting with all types of contemporary approaches. And I admit to being my Mother’s daughter (with the need to create) and my Daddy’s daughter and Auntie R’Lue’s niece (with the need to collect and store everything). I currently live and play in Nampa\, Idaho. \nBecause I have that “need to create\,” I want to share my creations with others. I love seeing my work being enjoyed in the homes of the friends and family. \nDuring a recent Open Studio event\, I was able to share my work. It was fun to touch each piece and remember how “it came to be”. Now\, many of those pieces have found new homes. \nMy studio is filled with wonderful “hardware”. I have several little Singer Featherweight machines\, a Bernina that is almost always accessorized with a walking foot\, and a couple of sergers. The pièce de résistance is Junebug\, my APQS longarm quilting machine\, that finishes quilts for me and for my friends and family. \nThe “software” is a wall of fabric. We quilters call that a “stash”. There’s a lot in my stash. Sometimes I’m overwhelmed by the amount of projects waiting to be made\, and other times I am incredibility inspired by what’s around me.” \nDiane will teach 2 workshops in April:\nWednesday\, April 26 “It’s a Beautiful Day in My Neighborhood” Click  to see a workshop details.\nThursday\, April 27 “Round and Round and Round We Go” Click  to see a workshop details.
