  Summer Shop-Hop with Sew Modern Chicky and Grubers Quilt Shop

  For this virtual shop-hop we will be welcoming Paula Hagan from Sew Modern Chicky followed by Sue Poser from Grubers.

  Paula, who will be our first presenter at 10am, has lots of beautiful modern fabrics that she loves to talk about and sell. Each fabric Paula shows us will have an associated item number and members can place an order for the quantity needed via the ZOOM chat box. Paula will go through the chat box after the event and email invoices to each purchaser. Alternatively, if you make a note of the fabric number,  you can email an order to Paula after the event. More specific instructions will be provided on the day.

  After a short interlude to refresh your coffee, Sue will join us at 11am to showcase everything new and exciting that Grubers Quilt Shop, Minnesota's ultimate quilting destination and the largest quilting and yarn store in the Midwest, has to offer.

  LUKE Haynes - Designer and Quilting Artist

  Subverting the traditional quilting form by integrating modern concepts, his art transforms the comfortably familiar into the visually evocative. Luke Haynes was born and raised across the American South. With a formal training in art and architecture at Cooper Union, New York, Haynes continues to experiment with quilting art while exploring art and architecture across the globe.

  A chance encounter with a box of fabric remnants sparked Mr. Haynes' imagination. His first quilt, measuring 7′ x 10′, led him through years of experimentation and improvements over the years that he has been quilting.  Further honing his style, Mr. Haynes developed a system to piece manageable parts into a larger whole, applying a modern design sense to a familiar process. He uses reclaimed materials from the communities he works with in his projects to speak with the textile language of the area.
