November 2012 Meeting

Another great turnout for Baby Bundles at the monthly meeting!  Many of the quilts were started at the Fun Day in October and then turned in during the November meeting.  We have 25 finished quilts to be delivered soon.


This is Eliabeth, showing one of the quilts turned in at the November meeting.  The center panel is cut 24.5 by 30.5.  The border squares are cut 6.5.  How easy can this be?

The picture below and to the right is Marcia, holding one that she took home from the Fun Day and quilted on her longarm.  She says that Baby Bundles are a great way to practice.

The fabrics from both quilts are from the Cathy Heck collection.

The pastel pretty on the left is the Twice Sliced Layer Cake turned in at the Fun Day.  Someone took it home and quilted it along the seams with a decorative wavy stitch and then added a tie in the center of the larger blocks.  Seems like a great way to finish up this quickie.

Another quilt turned in is just precious.  Upon examination, it appears to be a whole cloth panel with added borders.  Carefully machine quilted to enhance the look of piecing.

Well done!








I plan to deliver 25 quilts to the Mom's Place next week.  I'm going to ask them if they can send a baby picture or two.

October 12 Meeting Report

 OH MY!

We had 25 quilts turned in on Monday, although some need labels and one needs to be tied or quilted and also 3 tops. That's a good number - at that rate we'd do 300 a year, even without a guild-wide sew-in. Here are some of the quilts that were turned in

The FUN DAY is shaping up to be very productive. Call Gracie or Judy if you have any questions!
