MEETING RECAP
August was a UFO checkin meeting so we saw a lot of finished projects for show and tell.
The next UFO due at the October meeting is number 5. We are getting towards the end, only one more after this!
We also had two new members at the meeting, and Eliu showed off his amazing reclaimed denim quilts.
Laura L., Rebecca, and Julie Y. presented on Quilt Design Software. Laura L. discussed Adobe Photoshop, Rebecca covered Adobe Illustrator, and Julie Y. talked about EQ. They compared the different software and discussed the pros and cons of each for quilt design. The PDF of the presentation is available in the Member Section.
