(I can only LUCK into good photos of this kid lately. Here she is amusing herself while I worked on Scrappy Spiderwebs photos.)
1) Victoria Findlay Wolfe (she is who I think of as “THE WINNER OF QUILTCON”) is coming to lecture at an event co-hosted by the Boston MQG and the Seacoast MQG! She’ll be at the West Newbury Town Hall Annex in West Newbury MA on October 18, 7-9pm. Members of either BMQG or SMQG pay $5 at the door; all guests are welcome and can purchase a $10 ticket at the door. See the SMQG blog for details.
2) Lizzy House is coming to another lecture co-hosted by the SMQG and BMQG! She’ll be visiting us on November 23 from 10 am to noon, also at the West Newbury Town Hall Annex in West Newbury MA. This event is free to all members of the SMQG and BMQG; again, all guests are welcome and can purchase a $10 ticket at the door. SMQG blog has Lizzy House details, too!
3) Denyse Schmidt is coming to the New England Quilt Museum in Lowell MA in November. Her workshop has been booked up for months, but she will be giving a lecture on November 15 at 7pm. I won’t be able to make this one myself but check out the details if you think you can!
4) By Hand London just released a free PDF pattern, the Polly Top, and it looks FABULOUS. Fabulous, as in, why am I not already sewing this?! Head over here, enter your email address, and they’ll send you a download link. I’ve had a look and the pattern looks quite appropriate for a beginner sewist. (This is absolutely not a sponsored post, but seriously, you should know about the Polly Top.)
/and now back to your regular programming
Woah. I wish I lived in MA.
That’s a lot of wonderful goodness coming your way!! Lucky girl!!
Lots going on ….wish I lived near but Australia is just to far.
Such exciting news! Its going to be a busy and inspiring October & November 🙂
I’m kind of excited for all of this. Especially since my husband is working a normal shift and I don’t have to scramble and find a sitter!
Victoria is so the winner of QuiltCon. I stared at her quilt for an embarrassingly long time, but at least I wasn’t alone. I hope she brings it and some others for us to fawn over.
Wow lots going on, it is so cool to see….we are lucky round here too as Nicole from Mama Love Quilts is doing 2-3 free classes at spoonflower this month (3 hours each weekend)!!! and then I have sign-up to to take a day class with Carolyn Friedlander at the LQS!!
SOOO jealous of your MQG awesomeness.
