President’s Corner
Alphabet Soup
Aack! My quilting cup is runnething over. I have baskets, bags, and boxes of potential masterpieces all
over my sewing room. They used to be on top of my
fabric shelves only, then they snuck into even bigger
baskets and now have oozed onto the floor so I can
trip over them. How clever of my UFOs to remind me
that they are here.
Among the many (and I do mean many), are partially
completed projects (PCPs) from the
various AQG classes I have attended. You see, I'm slow in class. When
others finish our projects then proudly
display them at Show & Tell, I park
mine in a corner when I get home
and there they stay. I usually have
good intentions (GIs), but somehow
the allure of newer quilts sucks me
right in.
A peek into my tote bags reveals Hawaiian appliqué that I designed during a class with Paula Golden. Another bag contains the most beautiful
fabric for a small whole cloth quilt that
Joanie Zeier Poole taught us to
make. I have the hand appliqué,
which I am terrible at, from Karen Kay Buckley's
phenomenal class; I do use her methods still when
I'm forced to appliqué. And the list goes on and on.
But here's the thing...I learned from every class I
took. I have gleaned a bag of hot tips and nifty tricks
that help me with my sewing every day. I have tools
and fabrics and threads (oh, those hand-dyed

good chocolate (C) from every class I've taken. I've
met wonderful quilters and friends (F), both teachers
and learners. And you, too, can accumulate more
quilting knowledge and more stuff (S).
We have amazing teachers and classes coming up.
Terry Kramzar will be here in October with an exciting art quilt technique. Cindy Needham comes in
November with heirloom linens and quilting feathers.
A grand two day with Hollis Chatelaine comes in the
Spring. Polly Schatz and Sue Cochrane are your goto people for these and other programs. At the very
least, you can tell them what or who you would like
to have for us in the future. Then you, like me, can
eat C, make F, and have more UFOs and PCPs with
HDTs than you know what to do with. Here's to
S!
And here's to the classes that create it!

VEEPNotes
Thanks to the raffle quilt committee members who
were at the Sit and Sew on the 3rd. We had a good
session and were able to get all the block colors assigned. If you were not able to attend, I will
have your “kit” for you at the Guild meeting on September 14.
We are shooting for November completion of the
appliqué blocks. If you can get them to me by the
Guild meeting on the
2nd, that would be great;
if not, as soon as you
can before Thanksgiving. Then, Phase 2: setting the blocks. I hope to
get together with you
for a group session
in early December.
Take a sneak peek at
some of the fabrics at
left.
Thanks,

It’s never too late to send sunshine to
guild members by sending out cards to
those who are sick, recovering from
surgery, or have had a loss in the family. Please call or email, (with “AQG” in the subject
line please), if you know of someone who might appreciate a card from the guild.
Please be sure to find some time to make some
heart blocks for our members who have gone
through some difficult times this past year. You may
check past issues of our newsletter for any names
you may have missed. Directions for making the

From the Guild Librarian
And there she goes—summer, in all her colorful finery and with September gaily chasing
after her. My summer was spent exploring New England where I visited my sister and I
also had a go at the Outer Banks with my grandkids. Now I have been hitting all the consignment shops in order to furnish my new Florida condo.
However, that does not mean that I will be absent from guild all the time. Yes, I will miss
the first two meetings due to renovation duties BUT, my illustrious co-librarian, Anne Maio, will be bright and chipper and awaiting your book requests both in September and October. I shall return to her side in November and while I'm gone I expect Anne to report
back to me your enthusiastic interest in our new approach to book display.
You might note that sections of the book cart are labeled and check out the new books
we purchased this summer. With a look ahead, I hope more book purchases will occur;
so Anne and I will certainly need your suggestions. Also take a special look at "Great
Sets" by Sharon Craig and " Stretching Tradition" by Lynn G. Kough. I'm bummed I will
miss you all at the start, but keep an eye out for me. I shall return with hot titles from Florida!
Warmly,
Your guild librarian,
Alexis Langsner

caring ladies that you are.”
The Queen Bee quilt bee meets in Chester on Kent
Island.

SALEABLES
New items are available for purchase this year. A
super-sized canvas tote to bring you quilts in for
Show and Tell ($22) and a personalized Tervis tumbler ($27),
both with guild logo, will be available to see and order. Patches with
the guild logo can be purchased
separately for $8. The canvas bag
would cost $50 at L. L. Bean, so
this is a bargain!
Notes from our
Quilt Wrangler
I was lucky enough to
help in the making of the
2016 Raffle Quilt,
“SuperNova” and now I
get to take it around Maryland and show it off!! And
hopefully sell some raffle tickets in the process. Lots
of tickets!!
Selling tickets is a significant way that we raise money for our Guild. We use the funds to subsidize our
programs and events and to pay for the items used
during our Christmas potluck and our end of the year
dinner. As a member, we are all expected to sell at
least 12 tickets or $10.00 worth. (It is a $1.00 for
one ticket and 6 tickets for $5.00) . Please do your
bit to keep our Guild vibrant!
At the Sept meeting, Shelly Duncan will have a water bottle and 16-ounce tumbler that have the AQG
patch inserted and have been personalized so that
members can see what they look like. We are hoping to get 25 orders so that we can get a 15% discount from TERVIS for a bulk purchase. Bring cash
or checkbooks to the meeting if you would like to
buy these items.
Our quilt spent two weeks in August hanging out at
Capital Sew and Vac – thanks Diana!! And Pat Holland is taking the quilt to four different guilds on the
Eastern Shore during the month of September! Then
I will be at the First Sunday Arts Festival on West St
in Annapolis on October 4th and then onto four guilds
later that month. (Whoo-hoo! Road trips ahead with
perhaps some side trips to quilt shops!)
At this time we have two guilds scheduled to visit our
meetings to sell tickets for their raffle quilts. Faithful
Circle Quilt Guild will be at our October meeting and
Uhuru Guild is coming in November. Please support
these folks and buy some tickets!

Fall Retreat
AQG and West River Camp
During the Fall AQG retreat, I had a long talk with Bev Ames, one of our Founding Members (1980) and a
major catalyst in starting our AQG retreats at West River United Methodist Center (henceforth referred to as
West River or "the camp").
Bev's sister was associated with the camp and suggested that a small group of quilters could come for the
weekend to work in the peaceful and unique setting.
In the spring of 1985, the cabins were barely finished and there were some considerable hardships. In fact,
the quilters had to bring in several of their own campers to sleep in! However, the view won everyone over
and has had hundreds of quilters coming back for 30 years and ever longer sessions.
During the 1990s, the retreat accepted 50 eager quilters for a 2-night/3-day stay; now we limit it to 35 quilters
over 5-days/4-nights or a portion thereof. Thru all those years, AQG has supported West River with many
monetary donations, which helped improve the camp for quilters as well as other visitors. Better mattresses
were a major upgrade we all cheered, as were the better showers!
In Oct. 2014 West River dedicated their Peace Pole Pavilion. Many donors helped make it possible by buying
bricks inscribed with words of their choice.
In 2013 the Annapolis Quilt Guild donated 3 bricks with the following inscriptions:
Celebrating 28 years of pieceful retreats!

Our lives are like quilts,
bits and pieces, joy and sorrow,
stitched with love

on October 16, please
take a few minutes to
enjoy the pavilion and

2015 Fall Retreat
Friday Night Gala Dinner
This year's fall retreat, October 14-18, marks a special anniversary for AQG and West River Methodist
Camp. It will be our sixtieth retreat and, as with many milestones of that number, a celebration is in order.
That was the suggestion and kind offer of Andy Thornton, the camp's director, at the 2014 AQG fall retreat.
He greatly appreciates the close relationship that AQG and West River have nurtured over the last 30
years (x 2 retreats per year = 60 retreats).
Here are the guidelines we decided on so far:







Dinner at 6:30 pm on Friday, October 16, in the camp's large dining hall.
All AQG members are invited, as long as they properly sign up in advance.
There will be sign-up sheets at the Sept. and Oct. meetings.
Reservations are due to Hilke by email or phone by Monday, October 12.
Actual retreaters arriving prior to Friday will have their dinner already figured in.
Dinner will be finer than our usual fare, even with tablecloths! West River hosts many large events/
weddings/anniversaries. We are working on some special entertainment, too.
There will be 2 entrees to choose from at the dinner and the price will be determined soon ($15-20).

Community Service
Light House Quilts
for November Meeting
Ahoy, Mates!
It's September in Annapolis and time for the arrival
of our Salvation Army Bears!!!
Each September we receive a hundred or more
teddy bears from the Salvation Army, all dressed in
nothing but their birthday suits, and each December we give them back, all dressed up. Along with
an outfit, we create a child-sized or bear-sized quilt
to accompany each bear.
If you would like to participate again this year,
please pick up your bear at the Events table sometime during our guild meeting on September
14th. We have had LOTS of fun doing this for the
Salvation Army for many years. See you in September!!
—Marti Phelps
Lis Cockey
Terri Flaherty
We will have a show and tell of
the first round of Light House
quilts at the start of our November meeting--before they
go to grace the beds of those
who are in the center’s transitional housing. Michele Martin,
Associate Director of Development-Volunteer Services, will
attend the meeting and receive
the quilts made so far.
If you are working on a quilt now, please bring it to
the November meeting or get it to me before then.
Not quite finished?? Bring it along anyway. Michele
will love knowing that there are more “in the pipeline.”
And, there is still time
to make one! We are
looking for twin sized
quilts
approximately
60” by 85”. The greatest need is for quilts in
masculine or gender
neutral colors that are
appropriate for adults
or grade school children and teens.
Questions? Call Prue Hoppin at 443-607-8345.
Anne Arundel Medical Center
Needs Your Help
Louise Myrick reports that there is a continuing need for knitted
hats and mitts for newborns and scarves (good projects for knitters) and mastectomy pillows (finished at 12-14” square and
moderately firmly stuffed) for cancer patients. The pillows are
wonderful stash/large scrap busters and a great way to give new
life to completed blocks that haven’t found homes.

CHRISTMAS COMES BUT ONCE EACH YEAR—
YOU CAN CREATE SOME HOLIDAY CHEER
with this CHRISTMAS STOCKING PROJECT for our vets
And what better way to do just that, than to
make a special one-of-a-kind Christmas stocking
(or possibly two!) for recovering military members who become sick, injured or wounded during their tour of duty.
Stitches of Love….a group of dedicated ladies,
who sew, knit and crochet items for the troops
during their hospitalization at Landstuhl Regional
Medical Center in Germany as well as Combat
Support Hospitals in Afghanistan and Iraq, is
reaching out for help with their Christmas Stocking Project. Now is your chance to take part in
sending homemade comfort and holiday cheer
to those so far away from home and family during this Holiday Season. Most recipients are
men, so “less flowery” Christmas fabrics are preferred. Non-Christmas fabrics are acceptable
also — such as military and sports team themes.
And of course, there are women too. These are
easy-sewing, non-cuff variety 18” stockings with
fusible fleece batting, lining, and a sewn in loop
for hanging. Be creative, add a contrasting cuff,
some quilting or embroidery…but please tuck
those really cutesy kiddie fabrics back in your
stash for those wonderful grandchildren!
Start by selecting fabric that speaks to you of
Christmas and home. Plan today to do a little
extra stitching this fall to bring big smiles during
the coming Christmas season. Stop at our table
at the September 14 AQG meeting to see sever-
al finished stockings and pick up your Stocking
Project guidelines, pattern, and pre-printed label to attach to your stocking. Draw from your
lovely stash of Christmas and theme fabrics,
add a lining, iron on a bit of fusible fleece batting, stitch down the length and around the toe,
flip that sucker right side out, and... TA DA! A
Christmas memory is born!
If you wish to donate fabric with appropriate
themes for this project or can’t attend the meeting and would like me to e-mail the pattern,
please call Linda Dickinson, 301-262-3859.
We will have a limited amount of pre-cut
lengths of stocking fabric available at the September meeting. (All you will need to supply is
the lining fabric and fusible fleece). Finished
stockings must be returned by the November 2
meeting. Drop off boxes will be at the October
12 AQG meeting and at Capital Sew & Vac,
2116 Forest Dr., Annapolis, Md. Happy sewing!

I am looking for a new home for a '56 Featherweight. The machine is circa 1956. It is in very
good condition & runs beautifully. The case shows a
good bit of wear. It has the original instruction manual, attachments, and stitch plate. Oh, and even the
original tube of lubricant. It is possible that the foot
pedal has been rewired, but I cannot say for sure.
I have purchased and will include with the machine:
a 1/4" foot, a walking foot, a new stitch plate w/ 1/4"
1/2" etc. markings, & an acrylic extension "table"
that increases the sewing work area.
The price is $400. I can be reached at home, 410721-1355, on my cell, 443-306-3214, or by email,

Block of the Month - Log Cabin Block
The 2015-16 Block of the Month program starts this month, so choose your color scheme and get started.
This year’s designer is Hilke Hoefer. The basic block is a traditional 12-inch Log Cabin, shown here. Future
issues of the newsletter will bring you Hilke’s designs for 12 pieced blocks to be inserted in the black spaces;
the blocks will be suitable for beginning or intermediate quilters. When they are finished, you can arrange
them in a design like the one below (left) to make a twin-size bed quilt 66” by 90” or arrange in a design to
suit yourself. The quilt below requires 23 Log Cabin blocks. Make them of the same fabrics or all scrappy.
Make one or two log cabins each time you piece a block and you’ll soon be done.
B
Cutting directions: Arrange colors as you like. (Hilke
suggests cutting A and C patches in the darkest
E
colors, creating a good frame for the blocks as shown.)
A: Cut two patches 2" x 11"
B: Cut two patches 2" x 9 1/2"
G
A

F: Cut two patches 2" x 5"
G: Cut one patch 2" x 3 1/2"
F
D
A
H: Cut one patch 3 1/2" x 3 1/2"
Sewing directions:
Join H to G with a 1/4 inch seam. Press. Then join one patch F to G-H. Continue adding patches according
to the diagram until block measures 12 1/2 inches square.
