Leigh started show and tell by modelling the chemo cap she made and the matching anti-ouch pouch....she made a whole bunch more than the ones shown.

This is a cuddle quilt she made.....

 along with a cuddle blanket......

 and another one.

Then she showed us the miniatures she did while snowed in.

 A paper pieced Mariner's compass

not sure what this is called but they are all gorgeous, with fabrics well matched.

 Susan has been busy and this is one of her projects ready to be quilted.

along with this sweet little girl's quilt.

 She found this panel at Crafters Vineyard and the fabrics to go with it. It will hang at the entrance of her summer park.

Judy knit some warm mittens for snow shovelling and the snow stopped.  Thank you, Judy!

 kJudith made these placemats to enjoy dinner with her sweetheart on Valentine's Day.

 She also made this table runner....using the technique that Susan taught us for making half square triangles.

 Her grand daughter outgrew her apron so another was made ...this one has a loop for a hand towel...ingenious.

Judith's block of the month (Weathervane is the name of the block) got put into this comfort quilt ready to be quilted.

 Agathe made this cuddle quilt....

 and this one.!

 Pat got her point challenge done ....in green with a touch of orange...well done, Pat!

 Bea was challenged to do something with a piece of fabric and she rose to the challenge...this one , she is keeping .

 Vera made this beautiful disappearing nine patch for her grand daughter to take off to university when she goes.....lucky girl!

 Vivian brought in some anti-ouch pouches she made....

 along with this comfort quilt she put together.

Jean made this cuddle quilt.

Jacqui showed us her drawing skills with this very creative under the sea quilt.

and this sleepytime teddybears

 along with these two cuddle quilts.....

Then she showed us the pyjama bags she made for her grand daughters.  Pattern by Gerri Richards...a local talented artist.

 despite all the storms this past month or perhaps because of all the storms, we managed to get a lot of PHD's finished. Here is a wonderful heirloom quilt for a young lady who is graduating this year...all her sport and memory t shirts made into a wonder quilt by Jeannie Ewart.  Great job!

Beth took this panel and practised her free motion quilting.  We all decided she should have saved it for the interrupted panel technique we're doing next month...it is gorgeous now though.

This beauty was from the quilt project at the Fabric Cupboard...turned out really great. It belongs to Beth

This one also belongs to Beth and is a project in the making...she has some more squares to add to it...the fabric came from a square dancing  friend.

Marion's quilt is called Love the Fabric and we can certainly understand why...what a wonderful showcase for fabric that you just had to add to your stash.

 A lot of memories here...not only of things truly Newfie but of colouring with her Mom. Marion drew the pictures and she and her Mom coloured them.  They grace a wonderful table cloth with Newfoundland tartan edging the squares.

Ruth is hiding behind her primitive pattern of sheep in the field.  Great job, excellent quilting and piecing.

 These are king of cute!  Marion told us they were her "hangovers"...not the drinking kind ...the placemat kind....very unique and I bet they would be fun to make.

Marilyn went out of her comfort zone for colour and went into earth tones in this double Irish chain...going to Agathe tomorrow for quilting.
