September 24th Quilt Celebrations!

I continue to be amazed at how prolific our dear quilt group is!  We celebrated several more beautiful quilts last night.

Diana brought a very interesting piece with a great story behind it.
Her daughter made her a fused glass "quilt" for a table centerpiece,
and in turn, Diana made a copy of the glass piece in an actual quilt. 
She says batiks made it work.  It's rather amazing.
The small picture is of the glass piece, and you can see how closely they match.
I thought at first that the snapshot was a picture of Diana's quilt!

Barb brought two to celebrate.  The first is a small applique.  Beautiful work!


The second is her Piece and Plenty quilt in red, white and blue.
I am very taken with this one!
She got the block of the month kit from Stitchin' Heaven.  Lovely, Barb.

Then there were two Linus quilts shown.  Diana bound this one.


And Theresa told us about this one.
She made it doing a string pattern and particularly wanted us to see this Size 0
that the hospitals like for the newborns.  Fun one!


And last was the group quilt made for Possibilities Pregnancy Center.
Susy and Carolann have worked on finishing up the project
in which many have had a part.
Beautiful end-result!


Happy Quilting!!

July 16, 2013 Quilt Celebration!

Well, we're going to get some use out of this blog again today!  We had three quilts to celebrate tonight and I'm so glad I was there.  One of them will not be posted because of the gift-nature of the quilt, but will have to wait until after it is given to its recipient.  So, here are the other two......

Susie Carpenter brought her Piece and Plenty Quilt tonight.
Unfortunately, I didn't get a picture of her with it, but here is her beautiful work.
She's having some difficulties with the borders that she's hoping to solve soon.



And Barb brought her Kim Diehl scrap quilt.  It's a fun one!
It came out of this book and there are some other beautiful ideas in here.
Notice, I borrowed the book?!


Here's Barb's version of the cover quilt.  I like hers better. :-)


And here we are enjoying the show!
