February Fun

By -
 Our evening ladies are making a half-hexie quilt...a quick and fabulous way to make a quilt...great for machine quilting or hand quilting...their choice.
Here the evening ladies show off their wonderful Smitten with Mitten table runners all finished and looking great.. Nice to see them all done....and well done ladies. 

Jean took a shine to the ten minute block that Marilyn demonstrated last program day ...good colour choice , Jean.
 Evelyn made her Smitten with Mitten table runner and it looks great.
 Jean made these wonderful little  quilts for some happy little girls..way, to go Jean.
 Ann has been busy Knitting these wonderful intarsia sweaters...another to be sent away. I wonder if she would consider adopting me????
 Kay is working on the BOM and it's coming together wonderfully.
Marlene designs her own table runners and quilts and does a great job.
Hiding behind a Valentine's table topper is our own Marilyn Wynn,...in her hand you can also see the raw edge mug rugs.
 Leigh is getting her BOM done on time....wish I could say the same.
ReBecca showed us a way to recycle and keep our wrists warm while quilting or knitting.  The cuffs she has on came from an angora sweater that perhaps found the water too warm and shrunk a bit...don't throw it out , recycle and keep your wrists warm.
 Jillian designed this wonderful tablecloth size......needs to be packaged in pattern form and sold at our quilt show next year...right, Jillian???
 Joan West got this wonderful  quilt done...not sure how long she said it took her to finish it but it was well worth the wait...gorgeous!
 Betty told us five years but what does it really matter...it's done and it is gorgeous...so Valentine...y...Great job, Betty.
This is my contribution to show and tell...a hexie bag...fun technique...mostly by hand with a little machine work thrown in to get it done by today....Cheers, everyone!
