Paducah!
I got to meet one of my heroes - Diane Gaudynski in Paducah - even got
her to get a photo with me! Also saw Judy Spiers (she won an honorable
mention on her miniature), and Barbara Newman's Best Hand Workmanship
quilt. I tell you, these Mississippi gals can quilt!
Welcome to the newest
connecting thread for MQA members and quilters from Mississippi and
beyond!
About MQA
The Mississippi Quilt
Association, founded in 1991, gives all quiltmakers and quilt
enthusiasts opportunities to grow and develop their skills, gain
knowledge about the history of quiltmaking, and to meet new friends with
a common interest. In 2001 it received non-profit 501c(3) status under
the IRS Code.
Gatherings
MQA has three "gatherings"
each year - February, June and October - with meetings rotating to
different areas of the state.
Meetings are normally held on Friday night and Saturday and include
programs, classes, demonstrations, and a time for "show and tell".
The June Gathering
includes all-day workshops which are tailored to cover a variety of
techniques and skill levels.
Classes are taught by MQA members who
are recognized for their expertise.
Educational
Seminar
Each summer a
nationally-known quilting instruction teaches an Educational Seminar in
three strategic locations around the state.
For more information about MQA,
please contact any of the
officers, who are more than willing to
tell you about our great organization! |
