March 11, 2014 Meeting

 We started the meeting off with visits from two of our Froggy friends..here's Marilyn's patriotic frog  , waving the flag and ready for Canada Day.
Gail brought along her St. Patty's Day frog...see the quilt in her hand...paw...whatever frogs have for limbs....don't tell anyone , but we peeked and she has underwear on.  What a great job on these funny, interesting , well dressed and darn cute frogs....
Here are two of three cuddle quilts that Agathe sent along . She was unable to attend our sewing day but contributed anyway. 
Ann did some knitting and finished this beautiful Fisherman's knit sweater with gorgeous cables and intricate stitches.
 Susan brought along the next installment of her wall hanging BOM from Quiltmaker. Going to be wonderful to see all done.
Here's her summer "skinny" also from Quiltmaker ...the next in the series is the autumn and is has owls on it.  Can't wait to see it, too.
Jacqui made this wonderful pillow case with purple butterflies for her niece.
Then she made this wallhanging. She
s been a busy girl doing great work as usual..
Marilyn finds a panel, takes a look and has an immediate idea. She acts on it and voila, here is one of several mug rugs for her coffee drinking pal.  So innovative, quick and talented.
Judy brought in some more anti-ouch pouches...so did Vivian H. but she didn't hold still long enough for a picture.  We ended up with more than 40 to go to the hospital.
 Ethel brought in these great nine patch quilt tops for the comfort quilt stash,  A simple pattern, whether on point or horizontal, yet so very effective.

Renate made this wonderful log cabin pattern. Excellent work and ready for the next border.
Jean put together these two cuddle quilts .
Bea brought in this wonderful panel and some material for the backing. Jacqui has agreed to take it home and finish it and return it to the cuddle quilts. Quilters are so very generous.
And last but not least, it's great to see Joan back with us, we've missed her and here is a beautiful blue and yellow quilt that she finished despite a few grumbles about the 56 pieces for each square...teehee!!
