Introduction to Tula Pink; December 2015

     Our December meeting was a quick introduction to Tula Pink. She is a modern fabric designer, author, and quilter. Becky shared a video at the meeting, in which she talked about her process of designing fabric.  Then, we showed off many of her fabrics. Below are some links to her videos and other social media where you can find out more about Tula Pink.


Tula Pink has her own website at here. Picture is from google images.
Tula Pink has a Facebook Group here.
 Instagram @ TulaPink and has a hashtag.
#tulatroops
Here is a great YouTube playlist of Tula Pink videos that Becky put together for our meeting.


Our first Fat Fat Eighth Fabric Swap is here!!!

 The fabric swap is for 1 yard of any Tula Pink fabric cut into 11"x18" pieces.

   Yvonne has put together a cutting diagram here on her blog. This link has also been posted in our Facebook group. You can post a photo of the yard of fabric that you are bringing for the swap in the Facebook album. If you are having difficulties posting a picture, let me know here or in the FB group. Also, there's an email here on the blog that you can use to contact us.

Riley Blake Challenge 

 A lot of our members signed up for the Riley Blake Challenge at the December meeting. A&E does have a small selection of Sashing Stash that you can buy if you need more fabric for your design. We will notify members when the fabric comes in the mail and have it at the meeting.  You can find further  details on this challenge  here.

Membership Renewal

It's time for membership renewal. We are so excited about this New Year to bring you some awesome programs that Becky (president) and the board and members of the guild have expressed interest.  You are welcome to come and visit. The  info is at the top of this page under meetings. We will have membership forms and cards at the meeting. It is $25.00 for the year.

We look forward to seeing you. Please bring something that you are working on or a quilt to Show and Tell. It is one of my favorite parts of the meeting.

Happy New Year
Yvonne VP
