I'm catching up for our April and May mtgs in this post. We spent some time finishing quilt that were Blessed on Easter Sunday at St Peter's Episcopal church in So. Windsor. I did do some repairs to a quilt top that was donated (poor construction), but we loved the design/ colors enough to care for it.
Our May meeting let us take all the quilt tops that we'd finished and pin-baste them to their appropriate backings. I then, took them home to travel to Maine on a ten-day vacation for me to machine-quilt and bind. They all had to patiently wait for that LAST little sewing of the binding as I forgot to bring labels. They are done now... just need to be washed so they dont run/bleed their colors.
We'll meet a little later than normal in June, since I have a conflict of interest on our usual schedule. Then we're off for the summer... but dont worry that the ladies get to rest. I have them homework for our Sept mtg (return date).
