City Hall Quilts are Due!
The 32 quilts entered in the City Hall show are due at the May 8 QU meeting. Quilts need to be rolled up with a hooked dowel inside the sleeve. If you cannot bring your quilt to the May meeting, please text Janet Taylor for an alternate date ASAP. The quilts will be delivered to City Hall the week after our meeting.

LeMoyne Gallery Shop
Quilters and Crafters, it is time to show off your creativity! We need 30 to 40 small items for the LeMoyne Gallery Shop. The sale of these items helps LeMoyne offset the cost of putting on our show.
Plan to make one of a kind or maybe 2 or 3 of an item. The items do not have to be quilt related, if you make jewelry, do bead work, make cards, paint or make pottery, to name a few other crafts, those items will be appreciated also.
Quilty items can include pin cushions, mug rugs, placemats, needle books, potholders, “quilted” cards, wallets, pouches, or small wall hanging.
Put your thinking cap on and create some lovely items for the LeMoyne Gallery Shop.
I will be collecting items at the QU meetings.
Thank You,
Linda Strait

Pam Doffek will teach “Expanded Convergence” on Saturday July 19 from 10 a.m. – 4:30 p.m. at the Bradfordville School House Community Center, 6808 Beech Ridge Trail, Tallahassee, 32312.
“Expanded Convergence” takes the basic principles of Ricky Timm’s “Convergence” technique and expands them to larger sizes, accounting for various sizes of strips; some bigger to make the sewing easy. Students can work with any fabric square sizes from 18” X 18” to 36 X 36”. Supplies list upon paid registration.
Class fee: $10 to offset community center registration fee. Pam has showm examples before and will in subsequent QU meetings. Samples of student work from class are shown below.
