Start of our 10th Anniversary!!

Welcome back (this coming Saturday) to our 10th year!! We'll be meeting at St Mary's Episcopal church at 9am-3pm in Anderson Hall (Church ST side of the church). Bring your lunch if planning to stay for the day, or stop in for an hour or two.

We have plenty of quilts that we are sending to those displaced by Hurricane Harvey. I tried to fit them all in one box but alas, I couldn't lift the flippin' box!! HAHA. Now to find smaller boxes to put them in. Thanks to Jane Perrin (Project Linus fame) for donating 8 quilts for kids!! Pictures to be posted soon.

These next four were made by Kathy Siddons over the summer...  This first one was made by using leftover music fabric from Marilyn (she made placemats with the music fabric.) They are each made as a present.

Yellow Acres
One of my favorites!
"Geome-tree"
Notice the kitty ears on the side borders? They may be 'resting,' but they are listening,
Cats Hear Everything
This is just a few gray arrow designs (with a bright thin streak )... we need one more and then we'll use it as a center medallion for a future quilt.

This pile of blue strips will be put together for a backing for our blue stripes heartstring quilt (laying under the strips)... the reveal will have to wait for next month.

This is a quilt top made by Mary Ellen (dec.) a couple of years ago. We plan to add a navy blue thin inner border, with a cream wider border, then play it from there. The backing is pieced and will be enlarged to fit the top.

This is Delaney's first quilt. She is 16 yrs old, so don't think we're a bunch of old ladies! LOL... I think it's beautiful.... it's made without a pattern per se. The basic blocks are our heartstring blocks.

Auditioning a thin cream strip with an outer orange strip and maybe a larger fabric border that will be used on the backing.

Blessed quilts on Sunday morning....
