Two Busy Days




 

The last two days have been busy with classes.  I taught a pillow case class today and prepped them for paper piecing next week.  Here are some pictures from that group.



Silly girls!

Showing quilts to the group





Then yesterday the other group got together and I completed 9 more Twisted Sister Halloween blocks. 

No one else did a thing!  LOL.  But we did talk a lot!  Judy T. showed up and we talked some more!  Then Norma's glasses disappeared and we spent the rest of the afternoon tearing the room apart looking for the elusive glasses.  Turns out, when Judy left she just picked up the glasses laying on the table and left thinking they were hers!  LOL.

Norma loaded a quilt on her long arm and I watched hoping to pick up some pointers.  I learned a lot!  Thanks, Norma.  So I guess we did get some stuff done!

Norma's quilting, Halloween and a fabulous prize win

I am off to work on my Halloween Quilt with some friends.  We are putting together a quilting "study" group per se.  We meet and just work on our stuff.  Sometimes we help each other out if something needs to be completed.  Hopefully I will have the Halloween Quilt completed today and decide on what to do with it.  I will either make two with sashing or one big one without.  To Be Determined Later.

I did pick up my Snowflake Mystery Quilt from the quilter yesterday.  Norma McD. does such beautiful work.  She took my lousy quilt and made it look incredible.  She used an overall pattern that made the snowflakes look like they were fluttering in the wind.  My yard is so beautiful for taking these quilt pictures.  I think I need to have a quilt show in my own back yard!

I need to bind the Snowflakes and it is complete.  She definitely makes a mediocre quilt look like a first place winner!

THANK YOU NORMA!

My absolutely beautiful hand dyed fat quarter prize for sending in novelty prints to Patty The Quilt Lady arrived last night.  And I they are so gorgeous I don't even want to open the tie and release them!  Lucious.  I have some hand dyes I did two years ago that are waiting for me to begin theVegetable quilt and these will fit right in.  In fact, they may be the direct impetus to me actually beginning that quilt.

 Thank you Patty!
