Charleston Modern Quilt Guild
March 23, 2021
Business – Connie opened the meeting at 6:30pm with 25 members and 2 guests on Zoom.
Program – Cathy B. presented Color & More Color. She defined value, intensity, and hue. Your eyes will see three things in each color: • What color (its hue or name), • Its lightness or darkness (its value), and • Its brightness or dullness (its intensity). All of these factors can be considered when designing a quilt. She also mentioned that a color wheel can be very helpful to include colors that may not be our “go to” colors but can add interest to our quilts. A color wheel can be found at our local quilting stores. Thank-you Cathy.
Sew Days – The April 17th sew day will be via Zoom but the May 15th sew day will be in person at Five Eighth Seams. Yeah! We will also offer a Zoom option in May.
Charity – Susan B. has made pillowcase kits that can be completed by our members for the Shawn Jenkins Children’s Hospital. Please contact Susan at spierzon@bellsouth.net Please continue to make baby quilts.
