    Wink Popcorn & Movie Night at our Guild's December Meeting!

    Our Program Chair saves Quilting videos to play at our Dec. guild meeting. There is a variety to view such as lessons on color value, thread and needle tips, new quilting gadgets to simplify a process as well as quilt tutorials, such as Missouri Star quilt Co. posts on their link.

    A few of us gather to preview the videos so we can get a good variety of topics and edit the time frame on each video. We aim for an hour of viewing time, with a break in between.

    The fun part is we ask members to bring their favorite quilt to cuddle under (and show off) while enjoying the movies along with popcorn...and always a sweet treat. Some members even bring a comfy chair that folds out.

    Our guild has done this the past several years and is so much fun.

    That certainly sounds fun. For our Dec meeting we have an auction of unwanted sewing supplies and fabric.

    That sounds like a lot of fun. I might suggest that to my guild for one month a year.

    Sounds great! I don't even know how to save videos/movies on the computer, let alone edit them.

    I passed this to our program chair. It would be a great back up program when something happens to the planned one. That seems to always happen at least once a year. Thanks.
