The best part was the talk by Anne Sullivan of <a href=\"http:\/\/www.play-crafts.com\/blog\/\" target=\"_blank\">Play-Crafts.com<\/a>. She gave us all a lecture on Color Theory. I know a couple of things about color theory, but I learned quite a few things. There are things called color models, which I have heard of before. One of the models is called Hue, Saturation &amp; Value (HSV). It is a color model created to be more intuitive and show color relationships.<\/p>\n<p>Anne also talked about the basics of color theory, contrast, and color schemes. Anne has the passion of someone who loves color. She has clearly done the research of a person dedicated to something she loves. I looked at her website and found nothing on color until I went to the patterns and tutorials section and there were some <a href=\"http:\/\/www.play-crafts.com\/blog\/tutorials\/\" target=\"_blank\">tutorials<\/a> on color there.<\/p>\n<p>We had some business as well.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Elections are next month.there will be a couple of new positions available: liaison with <a href=\"http:\/\/www.themodernquiltguild.com\/\" target=\"_blank\">MQG<\/a> and the Opportunity quilt coordinator<\/li>\n<li>Charity will host a Sew Day on October 4. We will work in teams to create charity tops.<\/li>\n<li>Amanda still has no reliable source for Cat Bed donations. She had a few that were already made, but not stuffed, so people took those. I gave in the neon orange bed. It got a few laughs. [BTW, I forgot to take a photo of that cat bed, but it was just neon orange, so nothing interesting. Also, I was able to cut a top and bottom, but not a gusset from the remaining Polartec. I hoped that Amanda would have a bit more fabric, not in neon orange from which to make the gusset]<\/li>\n<li>The quilt display at the Los Altos Library will happen Dec 1-31 and Peggy has forms to fill out.<\/li>\n<li>There were a few more packs of fabric for the 2014 Opportunity Quilt. The blocks are due at the October meeting.<\/li>\n<li>PIQF is during the next meeting. \ud83d\ude41 Poor planning on the Mancuso&#8217;s part IMO.<\/li>\n<li>Retreat dates are still in process.<\/li>\n<li>Amish exhibit &#8211; quilts are due. I didn&#8217;t do one, but people have to arrange for a dropoff with Kelly. People showed their quilts during show and tell, but no photos were taken as people were concerned that others wouldn&#8217;t attend the show if they had already seen the quilts.<\/li>\n<li>I don&#8217;t know if the small groups met, because I was busy and missed mine.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Every time I turn around, I am kind of shocked that it is September.
