Scrap Basket takes the stage and prepares to overflow!
Not all of them were there to hear my lecture, but we had a great time. And the ones who were there got the free class part about Mile-A-Minute quilts (that's what you see on the board).
It pays to show up at guild meeting!
Everyone loves the Show & Tell part best, (me, too!).
These ladies had some wonderful work that ran the whole range from a 1992 UFO Mariner's Compass finished at last, to some great comtemporary strippy designs, and a black & red one that almost glowed...backed with Minkee!
The Quilting Guild of The Villages is having a show at the end of January. You can find out more about it here.
Right under the Mile-A-Minute demo board you can see the quilt top I made with that method. It's going to be a birthday gift. But will it arrive on time?
Stay tuned!

Any chance we could see a close-up of your Mile-a-Minute demo board, and a short summary of that technique?
I got a verbal description, once, and got blocks that looked like log cabins. From here, it looks like your Mile-a-Minute top has a Crazier look, which I prefer.

There are several methods called "mile a minute", but if you ended up with log-cabin-ish blocks, then you probably used the one I am showing.
There is an important insight into getting the desired results, and I will be happy to share that with everyone in my next post!
