This year's featured quilter is Sue Nay.

Sue's quilting adventure began in 1988 when she took her first quilt class from Dorothy Moss, a skilled and admired Quilter in Salem. That is where she taught the golden rule of quilting, measure twice, cut once and that has stuck with Sue through her years of quilting. Love of sewing for Sue began with her grandmother who sewed dresses and quilts with her workhorse black Singer. Sue's favorite quilt from her is tied with pink flannel backing.

Sue has been in quilt shops in multiple states from Texas to Maine, each having its own quilt assortment. She has also been on bus quilt tours, participlated in quilt retreats, and viewed State Fair quilt exhibits. The excitement of seeing the quilts is similar to a child on Christmas morning for Sue. Her favorite quilt pattern is that of scrappy pieces, mixing colors and patterns of fabric. 

Sue became a member of the Washington County Piecemakers Quilt Guild 12 years ago, and continues to be astonished by the skill, knowledge, and talent of this commumity of quilters. After each meeting, she returns home inspired to start on her next project. Her advice to new quilters is to attend the meetings and discover what the guild is all about. Sue stated, "We are a common thread."

Admission is $5.00. For more information, call (812) 620-4318 or (812) 620-0579.
