Greetings from the Solera Quilters. We meet in the Arts & Crafts Room on Mondays at 12 pm. All are welcome. We have ladies who are experts in various areas of quilting. They have generously agreed to share their talents with weekly demonstrations. We all learn new techniques and thank our friends for sharing. Jeanne showed the group her method of finishing the binding. Thanks to Jeanne – we learned a new "trick." Plans are underway for our Saturday Quilting Blitz. We bring our machines early and spend the day quilting, stopping for lunch. Everyone has a different project they work on, and it is quite interesting to show and share information. Several of our quilters have accepted leadership positions with the Pass Patchers Quilt Guild. The Pass Patchers do a lot of charitable work, and we are proud to support their work. These ladies worked at the Palm Springs Quilt Show in March. Ladies who attended shared patterns and fabrics obtained from vendors at that exhibit. Pat, who donates to the charity "Santa Claus," displayed quilted pillows she makes for this organization. To stuff the pillows, she uses snippets of quilt fabric left over from larger quilts. Our gals save their scraps for Pat – we waste nothing. Barbara introduced us to a website that is dedicating patterns to make quilts for Ukranian refugees. Surely our group will be following up on this. We encourage new residents to stop in and see what we do. QUILTERS 30 | LIFE IN SOLERA | APRIL 2022 |
