june 13 meeting

Harriet and Rob’s log house glowed with warmth for the June meeting. Harriet provided the entire meal, serving chicken, a green salad with fresh peaches, a grain salad, and homemade breads. For dessert, guests enjoyed mango sorbet and cookies. Everything was yummy.

Show N’ Tell

Flora created a Twinkle, Twinkle, Little Star quilt for a friend. She is also designing quilts and showed one that she plans to make for her guest room.

Shannon was playing with her Twister template again and created another design with her template.

Pris didn’t have any quilt projects to show so she modeled some of the fabric that Shannon brought to share.

Harriet had way too much fun at Island Quilter on Vashon Island, buying Kaffe Fassett fabric and some animal prints. She’s sure to produce some lovely quilts with it all.

Miriam finished up a cozy top that Shannon passed to her at our last meeting. Miriam seems to be the finisher lately. Her daughter made a quilt top for a wedding gift  but the wedding never did took place—so she passed the top to Miriam to finish.

Janet brought a quilt that she stitched on her long-arm for a client and one she stitched for Jeanne—the twelfth quilt she has quilted for Jeanne so far this year. Practice, practice, practice.

may 13 meeting

 The Piece Makers met at Flora’s home: Pris, Janet, Shannon, Miriam, Flora and Harriet.

It was a cool evening at Flora’s warm home with the fireplace, hot chocolate, and cookies and pie to set the mood.  Most of the meeting was spent accomplishing the mission of sewing labels on the finished YF’ers quilts. The quilts will be presented to the 10 seniors during the 11AM Plymouth service on June 2nd.  

Miriam presented a snuggly baby blanket, gown, and cap ensemble she made for Plymouth’s baby supply collection.

Janet displayed a small and incredibly intricately beaded and knitted necklace in the shape of a purse.

Harriet brought a pieced floral top that Janet graciously offered to help her quilt on her “Gammy”, her new long-arm quilting machine.
