CHANGE OF LOCATION
Pat Speth began quilting in 1988 when she
purchased a wool quilt batting from her
Grandmother's auction. "I checked out a
stack of quilt books from the library and fell
in love with the patterns and designs; I knew
I could not stop with just one quilt."
Pat started working with 5 inch squares as a
basis for her quilt making in 1993 after attending her first retreat. She was asked to
do a program for her guild in 1997 using the
5" squares, which gave her the push to explore new uses and techniques for working
with the squares. Pat, while working a full
time job, started on the book, Nickel Quilts in 1998 and was able to have it
ready for the publishers in June 2001. More books followed and her latest
is Nickel Quilts & Borders.
She loves teaching the methods for working with the 5" squares, and sharing her quilts with others. After juggling her full time job and her quilting for
many years, Pat moved into a full time quilting career in July 2003. "I have
found my passion in life, and I can't imagine doing anything else."
When she is not quilting (a rare and odd occurrence) Pat enjoys traveling
with her two webmasters and children, Ray and Roxie, who keep her from
getting lost in foreign lands. She lives in St. Paul, Minnesota.

PRESIDENT’S CORNER
Linda Ambrosini, [email protected], 949 362-4206
Scrappy quilts are always an unpredictable pleasure. All the different
colors and textures give each scrappy quilt its own individual personality that can never be duplicated. Pat Speth, our June speaker, published her first book in 2001 with the idea of using 5 inch squares of
fabric as a starting point to create scrappy themed quilts. Four books
and numerous patterns later, she is still creating. Fabric manufacturers now offer pre-cut fabric collections in both 5 and 10 inch units.
Pattern designers have also gotten onboard and developed even more
patterns using these pre-cut sizes. Yes, everyone loves scrappy
quilts!
At our June General Meeting, Joann Bishop and Susie Russell will announce a new group forming within Surfside. “Super Swappers” will address exchanging fabrics to increase our stashes and get us all into
a scrappy mood. Every member is welcome to participate - we can never have too many fabrics.

Vickie Janis, our outgoing SQG President, was presented with her President’s Quilt with the “under the water” theme. So many members were involved in creating this very special thank you for Vickie’s memorable year. Thank you to those who made blocks, sewed them together, appliqued letters, painted the back, sewed on the binding and sleeve, hosted a bee, hand quilted, or had any
part in making this quilt. Vickie will hang it with pride in her home and remember the friendships and
events of her special year. Jan Hirth, Past President
THANK YOU SURFSIDE!!!
The saying, ‘”time flies when you are having fun” couldn’t be more true! This year was such an incredible adventure for me and it passed too quickly. I treasured every minute and enjoyed working with so many talented ladies. The Surfside
Board made my job a breeze; our members make it all possible. Thank you, Surfside!
My quilt is truly an amazing work of art. I brought it home and hung it immediately over my quilting machine. Special thanks to Jan Hirth first for offering me the job as VP of Programs and then
following her as President. Jan was always there to help me, thank you! The quilt blocks are so
much fun, the Surfside logo is outstanding, the back art, quilting and binding are treasures. This
was truly an act of love. Vickie Janis [email protected]

Thank you from your Hospitality Team.

MONTHLY MINI
Margaret Arnold [email protected] 949-770-1259
This month's mini is a beautiful mini quilt pieced and machine quilted by Odette Osantowski. Odette chaired the
Block of the Month this past year, designing the patterns
each month for our "Love of Triangles" projects. She
made this mini version and donated it to the Guild.
Odette first learned to sew from her mother and made
clothing, including gymnastic leotards, as well as home
projects while she worked full-time. When she retired in
2001, one of her goals was to learn to quilt. She has become an amazing quilter and we are lucky she is sharing
her quilting talent with us this month.
Be sure to buy your tickets. $1 for one or 6 for $5.
Nancy Bloyer was the winner of the
May Monthly Mini - the Logo Quilt made
by Maggie Bell .

Well, the year of “Love of Triangles” must come to an end. It was a lot of fun designing the blocks, writing the patterns, and seeing the quilts come together. I hope you all enjoyed the
process as much as I did.
Remember to bring your quilts to the June meeting; we will be showing all your finished quilts
during Show and Win.
If your quilt is assembled, quilted, bound, and labeled for our June BOM show, your name will be
entered into a drawing for $100 donated by the Thomas Contemporary Quilt Collection. (tops will
be accepted for display). Then if you donate your quilt to “Wounded Warriors” or Philanthropy (if your quilt is not patriotic colors), there will be another drawing for $100 donated by Mary
Freedman. I can’t wait to see all of your quilts. Odette

“Circle Jubilee” Machine Appliqued and Quilted by Becky McDaniel. Becky organized this same quilt for BCQG’s 2012 Opportunity Quilt . That one was hand
quilted. She made extra blocks so she
could start one of her own, but her
daughter loved it as well. She had asked
for a double wedding ring quilt for her
wedding, but she hinted that that was no
longer her favorite. This quilt is a wedding gift for her September wedding.
Since Becky’s policy is only hand quilting quilts that she keeps and her daughter
will most likely be rough on this quilt, she
decided to do machine quilting. However, she couldn’t see doing so on her Bernina, so her husband bought her an
HQ-16 table top machine. This is the
first quilt she quilted on it. She hopes
the bride and groom like the quilt.

broken bone in her foot, and Penny Soldin who is recovering from
hand surgery. We hope they are all feeling better soon!
Do you know a member that needs a little sunshine due to an illness,
surgery or loss of a family member? How about someone celebrating
a major birthday, anniversary or new grandchild? If so, please contact
me by email or phone call to let me know so I can send a card on behalf of our members.
Cheers to good health and happiness!
November Fest - 2014
Sharon Whelan
Betty Collins [email protected]
June is here and it's time to start getting serious about the November Fest. We need quilts and items for baskets. Please start thinking about what you'd like to donate to the Fest to make it a success. Many of our guild
expenses are paid by the earnings from the November Fest. To keep the quality of speakers and workshops,
our wonderful meeting location, and everything else provided by the guild, we need everyone to participate.
It would be great to have a basket donated by every friendship group. Please talk about what your friendship
group wants to donate; there will be a sign up list at the June meeting. A big hit at November Fest 2012 was a
money tree; other ideas could be a black and white basket, a book and pattern basket, a batik basket, etc.
In past years LeAnn Goettel and Sheryl Smith-Bailey have given us the wonderful
brunches, however, this year due to other things happening at the same time (new
grandbaby) they have both bowed out. Therefore unless someone comes forward we
will be partly catering the brunch. We will still ask members to help us by bringing items
for the reception before the auction. Please contact me if you would like to volunteer to
organize the brunch.
We have some new fun things planned for the Fest and a return of the favorites.

Two quilts by Ursula Hartunian. The hexagons on
the left is from a kit she found at Road. The fabric was
in jelly rolls. It was a challenge to put together as it
needed very scant seams, but she loves it. The quilt
above is a Sandy Klop design that she forgot to bring
in April. Ursula loves Sandy’s whimsical, juvenile prints.
Katie Dunbar showed her “Haunted House” quilt, which she started in 2006 and made about two blocks a year.
Thanks to the UFO group she was inspired to finish it.

Monica Shafer showed “Spokes” a quilt she made with a charm pack of Ty Pennington fabrics. She has been obsessed with
hexagons and she wasn’t sure how to use them. A grand-­
mother’s flower garden was too old-fashioned and she wanted
to make a modern quilt with lots of negative space. She finally
came up with this. Hand appliqued, machine pieced by Monica,
quilted by Rags to Riches Quilters. She is keeping this quilt!

FRIENDSHIP GROUPS
Monica Shafer [email protected] Maggie Bell [email protected]
Being part of a quilt guild is a wonderful thing. There are so many like-minded people, with talent and expertise
to talk to and learn from. So many, in fact, that it’s difficult sometimes to make the kinds of connections that lead to much more than visiting at the monthly guild meetings.
Maybe you are new to the guild, or you don’t know many people, or you are a little shy, or you think you need to be a more advanced quilter, or . . .
Here’s where Friendship Groups can help. Maggie and Monica will find out your interests and availability and help put you together with other quilters to form a small group that meets in between guild meetings, once a
month, twice a month, or whenever the group decides. Wonderful and lasting friendships happen in these small
groups; skills are developed and talents shared.
Please visit the Friendship Groups table at the June guild meeting and talk to Monica Shafer or Maggie Bell.
You can also email them. They will be looking forward to talking with you!

Three years ago, Hiroko
Moriwaki and 51 family members met in NY to celebrate
her mother-in-law’s 88th birth-­
day - a special birthday year
in Japanese culture. The quilt
was a surprise gift of love and
her MIL enjoyed it for one year
before her death. Hiroko received the quilt and quilted
more on it. It is one of her
completed UFOs.

Thank you so much to all those quilters who brought their quilts in
to share at the May meeting. We really enjoyed seeing them. Our
Show and Tell featured 9 presenters with 11 quilts.
There will be NO Show & Tell at the June meeting as we will be
using the time to show our Block of the Month quilts and having
the drawings for the prizes.

Barbara Graham showed “Wild Kitchen Sink”. Last year she saw a “kitchen sink” quilt at her friendship group and loved it. However, since she
can’t seem to use colors that she doesn’t like, this is her version of “kitchen sink”. She enjoys more of a Freddy Moran color scheme. .

Phyllis Parente’s friend’s husband has been ill for a long time. After a visit with him she e-mailed his
children asking for a drawing or greeting to incorporate into a quilt. All 18 family members are represented. She used two of his shirts. The back says
“Laughter is the Best Medicine”, but she titled the quilt “Family is the Best Medicine” as they are a close family and all members have been very loving
and supportive.
Kay Johnstone displayed her “Thimbleberries Quilt”. She won a Thimbleberries kit in November, went home and promptly made the first block. Then
she remembered the Thimbleberries quilt she
started in 2008, so she decided it should be done
first. She was unable to finish the binding because
she had shoulder surgery and was only able to start
sewing again this weekend.
Phyllis Parente made this quilt from a pattern in
the book “Quilts for the Modern Home - Simplify” by Camille Roskelly. She is not satisfied with the
background color, but feels the wider sashing gives
a lift. Right after the meeting the quilt was mailed to
her granddaughter for her 12th birthday.

SEE US AT THE
BCQC QUILT SHOW
This quilt was a fund raiser the first year of
Surfside’s existence. It was designed and assembled by Diane Collins using signature
strips that members paid for. Everyone’s name went into the “hat” and the winner was Chris
Huben. She brought it back to the May meeting
for us to admire all over again. The money
raised was what started our treasury off in good
shape.
“Dani’s Wedding Quilt” was shared by Monica
Shafer. Her niece wanted a quilt as a wedding gift
and had beautiful photos taken before the wedding.
The newlyweds are young and gorgeous and the
photos were perfect. Monica based this design on
a Nora McMeeking floor tile design, with pieced
signature blocks and photos arranged in opposite
corners. There is even a picture of their beloved
dog. On the back Monica pieced a cross to represent their Christian faith which is integral to their
lives. Pieced and appliqued by Monica with
machine quilting done by Rags to Riches Quilters.

Volunteer Opportunities
It takes a combined effort of all members of the guild to provide quality programs, fun and informative meetings, workshops, and special events for everyone to enjoy and take part. We
know you have the talent and skills, but would you be willing to share your time to help out in the Guild activities? An indication of interest is not an endless commitment. However, your participation is encouraged and
essential in the success of the Guild.
Standing Committees are voting members of the Board and are appointed by the President. Please
check and volunteer in areas of your interest.
