Welcome to the McKinney Quilters Guild
The McKinney Quilters Guild exists to bring together people who share a love of quilts and quilting. Together we learn from national and local quilt teachers and speakers and share our work with each other and the community. All levels of quilters are encouraged to join us.
We meet on the third Tuesday of the month at Trinity Presbyterian Church located at 5871 Virginia Parkway in McKinney.
February 17th
Cindy Simmons – The history of paper piecing
"In 2008 I saw my first Judy Niemeyer quilt ‘Bali Wedding Star’ and instantly knew I had to sign up for the course. I fell in love with the beautiful sharp points and how easy it was to sew on a line printed on paper.” The excitement of putting each puzzle piece together and forming a beautiful story is very rewarding.
I have been teaching quilt classes in North Texas since the year 2000. Before that I was a substitute teacher for my school district.
Judy’s patterns are so much fun I knew I had to become certified and share this technique with others.
“It’s a joy to share my passion for quilting,” said the Queen Bees Quilts owner. “Making new friends and helping others to create a masterpiece that they can pass along for generations to come is something very special.”
Cindy has made countless quilts for family, friends and customers and says she will continue to share her passion with those who want to learn more about this wonderful craft of quilting.
