Quilt Celebrations - December 1st

Lots of quilts!!

Rachelle brought a bunch of Linus quilts.  Fabric had been donated that "went together" so she put together all of these.  More than I was able to get photographed!

You're amazing, Rachelle!

Colette brought 3, two of which use batiks.  The third is a fun churn dash.

Beautiful, Colette!

Isn't it cute??

Beautiful, Connie.

Quilt Celebrations - October 27th

 We had a couple of fun quilts to celebrate on the 27th!

First, Rachelle brought one she quilted for Sherrie Conrad that, if I'm remembering correctly, had come from Sherrie's mother.  So cute.

Nice work, Rachelle!

Susy brought her Harvest Baskets to celebrate.

Beautiful, Susy!

Happy Quilting!

October 13th Quilt Celebration

On the 13th, Connie celebrated her Irish Chain, which is a copy of her first quilt, if I'm remembering rightly.  I do love blue and white!

It's beautiful, Connie!

Happy Quilting!

Quilt Celebration - September 22, 2015

Ruth brought a couple of Linus finishes to share.  Her 90+ year old friend did the bindings on them!

Mary Ann had put the blue piece together and my memory fails me as to who did the other.

Thanks for sharing, Ruth!

Happy Quilting!

Quilt Celebrations for September 8th!

Rachelle brought two treasures to share.

Her mother pieced the blocks in this first Dresden. 

Rachelle repaired it and quilted it.

On the back is a key to how some of the fabrics had originally been used.

Her daughter pieced the second one and Rachelle finished it for her.

Two quilts, one from the generation on either side of Rachelle,

both of them finished by her.

Very cool!

Beautifully done, Rachelle.

* * * * * * *

Then Marylu shared a tutorial on how she has figured out how to make

the triangles to recreate Dyan's 30's quilt.

Thanks, Marylu!

Happy Quilting!!

Quilt Celebrations August 11th!

We had a busy night on the 11th.  Just before Fair submissions needed to be made, so we had a fun evening!

Diana brought her airplane quilt designed

from a picture in a WWII magazine!

Wonderful, Diana!

* * * * * * *

Geralyn brought her hexie-circle quilt.

Stunning!

* * * * * * *

Valerie was visiting and brought her four-patch

in which many of us had a part!

Cute, Val!

She also had this lovely quilt made from an Antler Designs pattern.

Antler Designs is a young man who has been sewing and quilting

since he was a young boy.  His work is amazing.

Thanks for sharing, Val!

* * * * * * *

I brought Boomer's Colorado Log Cabin

which has been in the works for about 2 1/2 years.

Finally finished.  Woot!

* * * * * * *

And we got to see Dyan McKinnis's latest acquisition!

It is the same on both the front and the back.

There have been a number of us who have tried to figure out how

to put this together and there has been some success!

Happy Quilting!!
