Our November meeting was filled with sharing and our Storybook Challenge.
Sharing Finishes:
Sharon quilted “Old Blue,” a quilt she made in a workshop with Fiberworks. Bunnie drew inspiration from Cecile’s studio – Dresden Plates – and made “Grandma’s Garden.” The grouping represent her children’s family and her grandchildren. Gail finally used some stashed fabric from 1982 and made an adorable Bunny quilt. Karen A finished the top for her Aunt Louise, using suggestions regarding the background from the last meeting. She’s hoping to get it quilted in time for Christmas. Karen M (@cosmicquilting) shared a quilt from her client, where the quilting shows off the lovely applique.
Storybook Challenge:
We had 13 people participate in our annual philanthropy challenge – with 14 quilts/books. Thank you to everyone who participated and donated their quilts. To see al the quilts, please go to the Philanthropy 2016.
Winners! Lisha and Susie tied for first and Karen A came in third.
