Christmas Banquet 2015

 We celebrated our Christmas meeting with a banquet at Smitty's Restaurant.  A wonderful meal for sure be we really came for show and tell.   Here are the participants in the Block of the Month  and the winner with the most accurate points was none other than Judy Steeves...not a surprise , she does wonderful work.
 Jackie made this beauty for her sister and quilted it entirely on her regular machine...beautifully done.
This glitzy Christmas bauble is for her deck. It was made using hoola hoops, styrofoam beads and Christmas motifs...excellent!!
 Marlene is hiding there behind the Chemo quilt she made...she took it home to put a label on it...well done, lady!
Sheila showed us a sampler quilt she made a while ago and finally got bound...seems like we all have PHD's waiting to be finished.
 Agathe got busy and did some scrappy quilts.....this one and the next go to our Chemo quilts project...gratefully recieved and awaiting use.

 Muriel has more grand babies coming....lucky lady and this quilt was not one of the chosen ones for them so it is going to a friend's or perhaps a relative's baby...either way, they will be comfy, cozy...
 and this beauty is going to Muriel's sister...so very stunning!
 and even the back looks phenomenal.
Judy got this I pad carrier done for her DH...wonder if he saw her making it or it is meant to be a surprise...
 Kaye made this sunshine quilt for her daughter who is undergoing cancer treatment...a reminder that the sun also shines.....
this quilt is a Victoria's Quilt that came to Kaye's daughter so......
 Kaye made her a similar one in the colours her daughter prefers.
Here's her Christmas red table topper.
 Ann displayed her patience in these wonderful crocheted Christmas balls.
Mary showed us a wall hanging she made years ago with polyester fabrics..they still maintain their brilliancy of colour.
 Carolyn got her Chemo Quilt top finished and it will probably be quilted by the ladies after Christmas...they do a wonderful job and are always busy.
 Judy brought in a curved log cabin topper she made in a class with Jean Fogelin a few years ago.
 and then showed us a miniature tree skirt she made for her daughter's tree when she was attending university...so cute!
She also knitted this gorgeous brimmed hat.
 Renate loves making these starred balls and has the sore fingers to prove it.
Wendy got her Monday night table topper all finished and it looks wonderful.
 This beauty is going to her mother and it is called "A different point of view"....she machine quilted it and is getting very proficient at it.
Another warm and cozy that she machine quilted...
 Janice enjoyed last year's "Decade the Halls" so much she made this table runner with the wreaths...looking good!
Linda did this French Braid quilt and swears she will never do another..wonder why??? this one is gorgeous.
 I believe this snuggle quilt is for her brother in law.or perhaps her son in law...there's a story to this one....
a sweet quilt made for a grand daughter...
 Joanne is hiding behind this little twister wreath she made...she's getting really good at this...
Jean made this crib quilt
and this is her  Chemo quilt....such a wonderful response but then I always said that quilters are the most generous people of them all....

Merry Christmas everyone....see you in the New Year....
