November 2010 Newsletter
From the President:
Hello to my fellow quilters!
Congratulations to all who entered quilts into the fair and congratulations to our members who will be taking home ribbons. Everyone is so talented I don't know how the judges decide. I hope everyone has had a chance to, or is making plans to, go to the fair and see the exhibits and have an elephant ear or what ever it is that you associate with the fair. There is still time so don't delay!
Fall is upon us judging from the amount of leaves on the ground just outside my back door. I know there are more to come. It is a wonderful thing to hear the crunch under foot when they first fall, and so much more wonderful to think of all the wonderful mulch they going to turn into for our gardens in the spring.
I have rotated my quilts from summer to fall and realize how many UFO's I have for fall. I really need to dig in and try to complete them in the near future. Maybe I will get that done before it is time to rotate from fall to winter. I'll keep you posted.
In the meantime I hope everyone is busy finishing up their challenge piece. I am looking forward to seeing them all.
Have great time and keep on quilting.
Lynn Lucas

Programs
2010 Devine Challenge: “The Wonderful World of Insects”
Your quilt should include a recognizable piece of the challenge material that was purchased from the guild as part of a fundraiser.
Size; No side smaller than 18 inches or larger than 80 inches.
Theme; any take on the world of insects, you may use a traditional insect pattern (like butterflies) or make an art quilt with delightful insects or show a world that insects would surely inhabit.
Quilt must be present at the November 1st meeting.
And now it is time for the November meeting and we get to see these wonderful, creative quilts, I can’t wait. If you haven’t made yours yet, there is still time. Just use ‘Prairie” colorway by Fusions in your quilt and pay the guild $2.
Last month’s meeting on Crazy Quilts by Judy was just fascinating. I hope you are all working on your personal version of this classic, due at the meeting in December. --Helen

October 2010 Newsletter
From the President:
Dear quilters,
What a wonderful day today it has been! After a mouthwatering breakfast of ham, cheese and mushroom omelet with hash brown style jicama early this morning, Todd left to go to Greeneville for a bicycle event. I spent the early part of the day finishing a quilt. Then having extra time on my hands this afternoon while waiting for him to return, I decided to make myself a huge bowl of popcorn with butter, of all things, and plop down with a movie. Do you ever notice the quilts in movies and TV programs? Usually the test of a good movie is that I think of nothing else at all while watching. There is, however, one thing that almost always will catch my attention and that is the quilts! Today was no exception and the thought of quilts crept into my mind. There was such inspiration in the beautiful colors and landscape on the screen. Letters to Juliet, is what I chose this afternoon, it is a wonderful movie for the romantic at heart, so full of hope and optimism.
One of my favorite movies of all time is Mama Mia. Amanda Seyfried is in both of them and that is probably how I made the stretch from Letters to Juliet to Mama Mia. The quilts in Mama Mia are wonderful. I am not sure how many there are, but there is one scene in which they are all lined up on the railing of the balcony of the dining area. I love that scene! Quilts really help make the set of a movie so much warmer, and believable for me, just like they make our homes and lives so much warmer.
Now Todd is on his way home and I need to think of dinner. I am afraid that hunger is not on my mind right now as I still can't believe I ate all that popcorn. Anyway, I am off to cook dinner and can hardly wait to get finished so I can spend the evening quilting away.
See you at the next meeting! I am looking forward to wonderful show and tell. Until then keep on quilting. -- Lynn Lucas
