February Program

Look at the "Gorbies"!!!!! Jackie, from the Fabric Cupboard in Moncton stopped in for a visit and you wouldn't know but the quilters hadn't seen fabric in months. Money changed hands, smiles were from ear to ear and we got some choice fabrics , gizmos and gadgets and even got to use our credit cards the "old tech" way.  Fun! Fun! Fun!...thank you, Jackie!!

Marilyn showed us the cowls she has been knitting. Getting a start on next year's Christmas gifts...such an organized lady.

 See what's sitting on the chair ...it is a fabric bucket...made by Marilyn...and such a clever idea. Great for storing yarn, kids toys , magazines...you name it. It also, is the project the "Evening ladies" will be doing next month. Marilyn ensures us it is easy-peasy.

Clever Vivan...brought the quilt she made for her grandson who's a fan of Lightning McQueen. What a great job...perfect fabrics and so well depicted...lucky Jaxon.

 Susan made this table topper or placemat for the tea pot and a couple of mug rugs to match. Let's all go for tea at Susan's...but make sure it is in pairs so we get  to use this Pretty set.

Here's a closeup of Lightning McQueen..those hand prints are from Vivian's grandsons..what a treasured keepsake.

 Susan finished her block of the month from last year ...hand quilted....and showed us the label that identified the designer, where she found the pattern and her name , location and year.  The best way to label for sure.

 Renate is a newbie but you'd never know it...this beautiful, huge quilt is from the first class she took with the evening ladies. She took to quilting like a duck to water plus she does meticulous work.

 Here's the backing for the above quilt. Gillian suggested the design to make the backing fit well, Renate went with it and now we are all anxious to see it quilted. Well done, ladies.

 Melda got her BOM from last year done as well.  They are so beautiful and so individually distinctive.

 Kay has her act all together and is just speeding along with this year's BOM. Clever way to display it as it progresses, like a portable design wall.

Something worth waiting for. Sherry took on this project a few years ago and finally got it all quilted this winter. Such a lovely job of cross stitch, as well as quilting. Stunning, Sherry.
