Submitted by Liz M. Happy Fall everyone! Greetings to our new MPS guild members and welcome back to our ongoing members. Marcia, our new chair for 2019, invited members to create a personalized name tag to use at our guild meetings and events.  Name tags can be a wonderful conversation starter!   Will your name tag reflect your favorite colors? Your favorite fabric genre? Your love for appliqué or piecing?  What style do you prefer? Lanyard or pin? Favorite shape-square, rectangular, hexies? Do you like a place to display your collection of pins related to sewing and quilting? Below are links to tutorials for nameRead More →

Back in March of 2011, the American Folk Art Museum presented “Infinite Variety: Three Centuries of Red and White Quilts”.  The show was held for 6 days at the Park Avenue Armory in New York City.  On the occasion of her 80th birthday, Joanna S. Rose wanted to showcase her collection of 650 red and white quilts and also wanted the exhibit to be free to the public.  Can you imagine such an exhibition? A video was posted by the American Folk Art Museum, and it features Elizabeth V. Warren, who was the curator of the show.  In a short 9-minute video, she talks aboutRead More →

Yes, it’s that time of year again.  There are Gift Guides and Wish Lists everywhere.  Your Social Media Committee thought it would be fun to create a list just for MPS. So we put our heads together and came up with a few things we’d thought you’d enjoy.  Use this as your own personal wish list or gift guide.  Remember, you can always click on an image to get a larger view. First of all, what quilter doesn’t need (or just want) more equipment or gadgets? We like the Creative Grids Rulers because of their slip-resistant backs and their fine lines that increase accuracy.  RememberRead More →

The current Website Committee decided to change our name to better describe what we do.  So we are now officially the MPS Social Media Committee. We have a Facebook account and an Instagram account.  Just use “metropatchquilts” in the Search box for both accounts and you’ll see some of our latest postings.  You can choose to follow us and then you’ll never miss a thing. So who is this Social Media Committee?  Well, I’m glad you asked! Hopefully, you’ve noticed more activity on our MPS Blog.  That’s due to two new writers who are excited to bring you quilting information. Barbara S. is a fairlyRead More →

Our Program Chair has been hard at work putting together four wonderful workshops for us.  The classes are quite diverse.  You can create an art quilt, or go more traditional.  You can do something completely different from anything you’ve done before, or you can make a more contemporary quilt.  There is something for everyone.  In fact, you’ll probably be interested in more than one workshop. You can click on any of the images below to see more detail.  All workshops are open to members and non-members alike. On Wednesday, March 28, Laura Jaszkowski will be bringing us her “Sew Your Garden” workshop.  You have theRead More →
