Quilt May 28 Meeting

First off CONGRATS to Margee ..... her grandson Murphy David made his appearance on Tuesday. Mom and Murphy ( 9 lbs and 4 oz) are doing fine.

Second WELCOME to Elaine and Doris who stopped by to visit our group. We hope you guys will join our Stitchers Group ....... more the merrier.

We were alittle thin on members this week ...... so not many photos for viewing.

Nancy's quilts for the twin girls are finished and they are so adorable. Love those kitties.







Carol works on finishing her binding on this pretty floral quilt.



Marilyn is relating the story behind her hand stitched grandmother's garden blocks to Clarice. I believe Marilyn stated these about 20 yrs ago. We love those 1980's fabrics.



When Marilyn was in Columbus last week she stopped in at the Glass Thimble and Quilt Beginnings. She brought us back these 2 new notions. Left is a threader that has a cutter on the other side, perfect for airline travel. Right is Chalk Cartridge Set for quilt marking. We can't wait to try them out. (sorry the photo is out of focus)




Betty has finished her Charlie Brown print quilt for Project Linus. It is too adorable.




Judy (left) continues with her cross stitch project from last week. Clarice (right) continues to work on the embroidery project her mother stated many years ago.



No photo of me but I worked on the binding of a donation baby quilt ..........


See you next week, June 4.


Don't forget we're having our goodbye lunch for Sharon at DaVincis in Williamstown .... let Marilyn know if you're attending.

April 9 Meeting

We all LOVE to quilt BUT our favorite thing to do while quilting is to eat CHOCOLATE !!!! Here's some of our CHOCOLATE stash ...... check out those pretty colors just like fabric.




Even though the Parish Hall kitchen was receiving a new dishwasher, sink and cabinets we pressed on with our quilting. There was no water in the kitchen for coffee/tea making so our leader, Marilyn, brought us coffee from home ....... thanks Marilyn.



Sharon has a new quilt ... actually block of the month. Sharon loves 'houses' .... see the house in the middle!!! The colors are yummy and bright.


The colors are luscious .... the pinwheel block was adorable (no photo).


Our Nancy was humming along to finish the bindings on her 2 baby quilts from last week.



Aren't they adorable !!!!!!







You remember the Ohio University quilt Marilyn made for one of her grandsons ..... well she has decided to sew the left overs to make the backing .... all the colors of red and grey were so pretty.



She has alot of pieces left over from the OU quilt.



I made these 2 quilts in memory of an internet quilting friend who passed away March 31. I'll be donating these 2 quilts to Project Linus in honor of JanJ of Texas.



See you next week, April 16.
