An evening with Jenny DoanPlease join us for a Question-and-Answer session with Jenny Doan, quilter, author, and founder of The Missouri Star Quilt Company. Jenny will be discussing her recent autobiography,
How to Stitch an American Dream: A Story of Family, Faith, & the Power of Giving
Jenny will be joining us via Zoom. However, attendance will be in-person only, and seating is limited. The fee for non-members is $10, and pre-registration and pre-payment are required. Guests should email pennoaksquilts@gmail.com, and they will receive Venmo payment information or wait list information at that time. If the guest does not provide payment by Friday before, then their spot will be canceled and someone from the wait list will be given Venmo information and asked for payment. In order to get the most enjoyment of this event, we recommend that you read Jenny’s book prior to the meeting. It is available through Missouri Star Quilt Company, Barnes and Noble, Amazon, and other booksellers. It is also available as an audiobook.

Terri Sontra : The History Of The Sewing Machine
A Tale Of Intrigue & Espionage
Not your ordinary history lesson! We will take a look at the more humorous and salacious bits of the past that brought our beloved machines to us today. This program is a PowerPoint presentation along with antique machines and other sewing items from Terri's personal collection. And, don't worry, there's no test at the end! (Zoom only)

Sam Hunter, Studio Tour and How to Set Up Your Space Ergonomically
This is a great live ZOOM lecture with open Q&A where I show you all the nooks and crannies of my studio (and all my creative storage solutions), and discuss how my studio fits my body, my habits, and my process. We talk about the ergonomics of setting up your space so you can continue to enjoy quilting while keeping your body healthy! 

December 12, 2022
Holiday Party (Members Only)

We will be meeting in person (no Zoom.) We will continue the tradition of playing Quilto (with prizes!) We ask that you bring a snack (cookies, etc.) to share. We are also going to have a block exchange this year. If you would like to participate, please bring a block, wrapped or in a gift bag. Blocks should be 12 and a half inches (unfinished size) and can have either a holiday or winter theme. We are looking forward to a fun evening!

Julia McLeod, Everything but the Cotton
Let’s explore the world of quilts that were made with what I call ‘Not Cottons’. 
When quilters don’t have access to a stash of quilter’s cotton, what do they turn to? This one- hour lecture, trunk show and Q & A session shows quilts – antique and modern – made of wool, silk, polyester and more. The trunk show of my own work shows what you can create with neckties, saris, kimonos and other unusual, ‘not cotton’ textiles. 
 
October 10, 2022
Bob DeCarli, Workshop and Lecture on Interleave Quilts.  Workshop is during the day and lecture follows at the general meeting at 7 pm.  
Interleave quilts are the quilting worlds version of an optical illusion. You start with two designs, pieced, appliqued, picture on fabric. 
Interweave Workshop Oct 2022

September 12, 2022
Julie Silber,  Keepin’ ‘Em in Stitches: America’s Funniest Quilts (In Person Meeting with Zoom Lecture)

August 8th, 2022 at 7PM
