Rayna is one of our founding members. She and Aleeda met on Simply Quilts.
They decided to start a Modern, but really all inclusive, guild in New Jersey. And the rest is history…
Her most recent book is called Create your own Improv Quilts. She started with the question ‘What If…?’ 
…I start with a rectangle and go from there?
…start with a square?
…skinny rectangle?
Most importantly, “you need to play!”
Good luck to Rayna in Florida and we will see you in October! TTFN!
