This auction item was handmade by one of our member’s father-in-law.  Unfortunately for her, she had to leave it behind when she relocated to another city.  But fortunately for you, it will be up for bid at our annual MPS Silent Auction. It’s full of vintage sewing goodies.  Chester has checked it out and approves of this gorgeous sewing box. (click the image for a larger view) Here are a couple of other beautiful baskets that will be at the auction.  That Quiltfolk magazine is worth the price of admission.  If you’ve seen other Quiltfolk magazines, you’ll agree. The auction will be held Tuesday, AugustRead More →

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 →

Submitted by Dianne McD with Photo Cred to Cydney G. (click images for a larger view) On the warm evening of August 23rd, 2022, MPS held its annual Silent Auction in the Fellowship Hall of the Bethel Congregational Church in Beaverton, OR.  With over 200 items up for bid, there was something for everyone.  Besides many curated packets of fabric, there were quilt kits, books, puzzles, bags stuffed full of beautiful fabric with a pattern to go with them, a basket full of wonderful linens, and a 1940 Singer Featherweight sewing machine.  I think I even saw a bottle of wine tucked inside one ofRead More →
