May 2013 meeting notes

We had a really interesting meeting this last weekend, though it was pretty light attendance with all the other activities going on.

Our guest speaker was Emilie Daly who presented a whole new concept of digitally printed fabric. What an amazing new tool we have available! She is a pattern designer for Modern yardage a company here in Salt Lake City that prints fabric on demand. They have a growing online database of fabric designs to choose from in different sizes and colors. Once you choose your fabric it comes printed in just the amount you need for your project. Never run out of a fabric print again! Designs should always be available so if you end up stashing the fabric and find out 2 years later you need more, you just go online and order another piece. YOu can get a fat quarter or 10 yards at a time. The options are really endless.

Check out the website for Modern Yardage here: www.modernyardage.com or visit Emilie's blog here: www.emilydalydesigns.com

Thanks to everybody who gave feedback on HMQS classes and vendors. Ann reported that the show went really well this year and they see great things in their future. We'd especially like to congratulate all of the award winners from our guild.

Check out our website for an updated list of upcoming events and shows for the summer, and we'll see everybody again at the next meeting on July 20th!
