May Meeting

 

 Hello everyone. This month our program was done by our own Cathy B.  She showed us some of her Mola collection and showed us some things she has been repairing for others. She is a very talented lady and the program was great.  I think we all know we should not fold our quilts now, huh? Thanks for all the great info, Cathy.

April meeting

This month we had a round robin program.  It was great and I hope we have more of these...

 

Jackie talked to us and showed us how to do the  chenille method on fabric. 

 

 

 

 

 

Annalee showed us how to work with hankies to make blocks for quilts. 

Katie talked to us about origami fabric folding.  Lots of fun.

 

This month was the month we showed our quilts for the polka dot challenge There were seven entries for the challenge and Annalee won with her beautiful circle quilt.

 

 

 

 

Now for some great show and tell from our members.

Here's Nancy's cute baby quilt.

 

This one is mine. I found this on Pinterest and I also saw a video by Jenny of Missouri Star quilts for this one. It is called Tumbling Charms. I used two charm packs and yardage for the border from Eleanor Burns. 

 

 

 

Glenda made these two for community service.

 

Here's Susan's cute butterfly quilt.
