Pam's Beautiful Quilt

Hi,

Here is a picture of Pam's quilt all done.  It is beautiful!

Postponing January Meeting

Hi All,

With Liza under the weather it has been suggested we postpone the January meeting until February. It was to be Liza's month in January but she is in no shape to get everything together.

With this being such a busy time with the holidays and all I agree.

I hope everyone has a wonderful holiday season and I hope to see you all in the New year if not before!

You better be good! Someone is watching...

Merry christmas!

Charlene is taking Carissa's place in the block party. Not much notice until she does her quilt...a few days but she is up to the challenge. By the sounds of it, it is going to be beautiful...purple, lime green and black...wow!

Welcome Charlene!!

Jeneane's Block

What a great block this was to sew...and I should know as I screwed up and did it twice!

I started with the fat quarter and looked at the book and went wow, I can do this.  So I cut the block...this is where I went off the rails...I cut it into 15 pieces instead of the requsted 12 pieces.

I probably read Jeneanes instuctions 5 times but the number 12 never did get into this pea brain of mine.

I started adding my triangles to the original 15 pieces and before you know it, I had three rows.

It all came together here...

I didn't want to spoil the surprise.....then I re-read the instruction sheet and went holy s*** batman, my bad!
Good thing we have a place where I can get more of the background fabric, so off I went to Dei's. Here finally is the completed block as was asked for...sheesh what a dumb girl I am sometimes!

Oh no, thats the back, you will just have to wait until Oct 29th.....

Easy Peasy

My this technology is slick... Love The pictures.

Next Meeting

Hi Everyone - just a reminder that our next get together is on October 29th instead of November 5th -Ron Collins is teaching that weekend.

Jeneane's beautiful package of inspiration.

Here is the beautiful package we  received on saturday, I can hardly wait to get started on the triangles!

The beginning...part way through!

I hope no one minds being part of this blog.  I have set up each of our participants to be able to post here...I sure hope it works...if not, please email me and I will see what I can do.  I hope each of you will put photos, questions or comments on this page.

If there are any changes to the schedule I will post them here, as is the case for the November meeting, it is now on October 29.

If anyone is having difficulties making it to the meeting , as life does get in the way, please drop a line, we all understand. If you can, just drop off your blocks ...if not we will see you at the next meeting.

Here are my blocks to date...aren't they great! Please post a picture or 12 of your blocks any old time you like. lol
