Who doesn’t love a good quilt kit?  Or a bin full of pre-cut scraps just waiting for someone to do something wonderful with it?  Here’s a couple of examples of the kits and scraps that are available at the MPS Silent Auction.  Many sewists have also picked up quilt tops that never made it into the final stages of quiltdom and were just waiting for someone to come along and turn it into a charming quilt. Our annual Silent Auction is being held on Tuesday, August 22, 2023 and you can get all the details about the auction by clicking here.  You can see someRead More →

Greetings MPS members! I am enjoying a coolish breeze through my sewing room windows now, but clearly recall in every pore of my body the swelter of the last few days and am very glad for this change!  At this writing, the weather forecast for our “much looked forward to” silent auction next Tuesday is 79 degrees!  May it be so! I want to thank the many members that stepped up to help with the various jobs that go along with our upcoming silent auction.  It will indeed take many hands and I appreciate that the VAMPF co-chairs now have all the help that theyRead More →

Submitted by Jean K. (Click on images for a larger view) Another Quilters’ Affair and Sisters Outdoor Quilt Show are in the books.  As always, the week was full of surprises.  One of the best surprises was a tour of the Alpaca Country Estates, a 134-acre ranch with over 1000 alpacas owned by Nancy and Art Izer.  It is located between Sisters and Terrebonne. My housemates and I stayed at a friend’s home at Crooked River Ranch.  Each time we headed into Sisters we passed the ranch and commented on the beautiful animals.  One day we stopped to watch them and met Nancy. She encouragedRead More →
