The Challenge 2013

Our challenge for 2013 is for members to make 12 pieces of work, A4 size, using any technique in the chosen colour for that month (see here) with one other used sparingly as a compliment as designated. Some months have a free choice. The edge to be finished appropriately for the design.

........lots of inspiration can be found here from the Twelve by Twelve website.

We've set up a Flickr pool for members to post pics of their work here :-)

We had to re-schedule our March Guild meeting due to the snow (!) so we'll be meeting tomorrow night Tuesday 26th March 7.30 - 9.30pm @ Quilty Pleasures Studio.

A change of plan

Rather than our proposed 'Pot Luck Supper' we have decided to have a Pub Supper instead for our December meeting on Tuesday 11th, at the Hangleton Manor Pub Restaurant.

Please can all members email us on brightonhovemqg at gmail dot com asap so we can confirm numbers for our table reservation :-)

Thank you!
