On June 7, 2025, members of Maine Modern Quilters (MMQ) gathered at Winslow Park in Freeport for an engaging and lively meeting to wrap up the program year. With 19 attendees, the day began with warm introductions, as members shared places in Maine they’d love to visit — from Monhegan Island to Shaker Village and the Portland Museum of Art.
Treasurer Karen Wood provided a financial update, and Membership VP Veronica Serrato reminded everyone to renew their membership before September 31. Activities VP Meliss Swanson shared exciting plans for upcoming community sewing days, while Special Events VP Becky Rogers announced a January 2026 virtual class with Nicholas Ball and a fundraiser quilt display for the Yarmouth Historical Society.
Show and Tell was a highlight, as members proudly displayed stunning quilts, barn quilt designs, and wearable creations. The meeting wrapped up with a fun yard sale and picnic, reinforcing the camaraderie and creativity that make MMQ such a vibrant group.
As we head into the next program year, members can look forward to engaging workshops, quilting projects, and community events. Stay tuned for details at the next meeting on September 6!
