Believe it or not, Flora baked up confetti cupcakes for our quilt meeting. Thank you!
SHOW AND TELL
Miriam brought a slew of projects. She produced a pillow with the Colorado flag, a patchwork baseball cap and a finished lap quilt for June to give to a Plymouth member who’s infirm and needs comfort. Plus pot holders crafted from small finished blocks made by Maurine.
Pris told the story of working on a quilt top by hand during her California trip—made with hundreds of 2.5 inch squares. While there, she befriended a young girl and they went fabric shopping together. There will be more on that story later. Pris is also working on her YF quilt made with greens and purples, music and animals.
Shannon is balancing two big projects—the auction for Ingraham High School and her YF quilt. The auction will be over at the end of the month, then she can focus on her wonderful YF quilt filled with dotted fabric.
Janet’s health has been challenged with good days and bad days. She was kind enough to make a quilt for a co-worker who’s about to become a dad. The fancy-cut alphabet squares are surrounded by fresh yellow sashing.
Patricia has been to New Zealand and back since our last meeting. In early May she’s going to Salt Lake City for Spring Quilt Market—with two fabric collections in hand.
Non-stop Flora showed a heirloom quilt, made with the Around the World design, that a friend from Cincinnati sent her way. Then she displayed two remarkable memorial quilts, one made from a shirt and one from a t-shirt. And a carrier she made for her new specialty sewing feet.
