The start of a new Year

By -
Here we are , starting another year of show and tell..Agate showed us something we will be working on this coming year...a new technique using a panel...it intrigues me...now I have to find a panel to do this...it is call disrupted panel...makes sense doesn't it?
 Carolyn got the bug from Vera...and I understand , Leigh as well...this is an "Architectural Gem"  and what a gem it is ...mostly batiks and black sashing...gorgeous!
This is Kay's quilt ...I call it a shoebox quilt based on the various sized blocks you find in a shoebox in a quilter's sewing room . In this case it is from Bea Elliot's collection of squares and Kay  put it together beautifully and called it "Bea's Sampler"....I believe it will be finished for a wedding gift...lucky couple!!
 Judy got some fabric from Hawaii...her daughter went there and brought some back for her Momma...wonder how she knew Judy would love to have fabrics from Hawaii???
 This Judy got into miniatures and wowed us with this "Little Twister"....
this nine patch wee one.....
and an even teenier one.  They are stunning!
 Cnythia got her groove on and made her 9 patch variation into a seasonal quilt by fussy cutting the centres of her nine patches.  Looks great.
Renate is like the energizer bunny , she just keeps making quilts...this one is a "Roman Stripe"...keep on going there, girl!
Cheryl is trying to hide but we know it is her. She is showing the folio that Marilyn made for the treasurer's books..nice job.

Well, we're geared up for a brand new year...this one is a quilt show year so if you are reading this in time, the show starts Thursday, September 22,2016 at 1:00p.m.  Be sure to come see it all...
