LMQG Masters First Virtual Sew Day - April 2020

Our quilters practiced synchronized sewing and had a fantastic time meeting virtually. We shared our stories of how we were sewing through the pandemic and what projects we were working on. 

Impressive masks and surgical cap donations continue by many dedicated members.

March Meeting Recap

We did it!!

Thank you, everyone, for attending our inaugural virtual meeting. 

Our members shared how Covid 19 was affecting them. We sadly heard of members who had family and friends with illness and who had passed. Others have continued working, many from home. Our members continued sewing - quilts and PPE (personal protection equipment) for frontline responders.


Albie Osborn shared her Quilt Journey - not only are her quilting skills impressive, this is her first presentation and she did fabulously. Please find it here. 

We shared show and tell for as long as Zoom would allow. It was so lovely seeing everyone!

Please, share pics of your projects/masks/bonnets and share your posts about how things are going on our Facebook page. 

Challenges: 

Covid 19: Make a wall hanging challenge quilt for how that reflects your Covid-19 experience

Mentor/Mentee: 

Pairs have been assigned. Please check your email.

Show and Tell:

Members shared their show and tells. Due to technical difficulties, we haven't captured them all - Please, share on Instagram (Our page is Lincoln_MQG and hashtags are #lincolnmqg  #sewviral) and / or on our our Facebook page on the Meeting update page.

April 11th Sew day: 

A virus won't slow us down! We'll have it as planned. We'll sew separately at home, post pics on Facebook and/or Instagram and have a live Show and Tell at 2:30. Please see your email for the meeting link. If you don't get the link (for members only), please email or IM Elisa Salas (drquiltpath@gmail.com).
We'll sew independently and join zoom 


Thank you to all who showed up. We'll continue the virtual meetings and look forward to the time we can meet in person again.
