March QC

Quilt Circle of Friends met this week. We shared news of the month since our last meeting and then shared our show and tell:

I kicked off our show and tell with this little topper made from 1 package of Kaffe Fassett charm squares. 

This is a new shop sample made for us by Diana W.  - Gingersnap from Villa Rosa.

Another new shop sample. This one fresh from the quilter and made by Lonnie K. - Spinning Out. See the pieced back next. 

Bonnie showed this block made for an exchange - - - 

and her "Underground Railroad" quilt.

This is Bonnie's quilt top, made with the Quick Curve Ruler. We decided she should use it on her piano bench.

Nancy H finished the hand work on this Halloween runner and - - 

she made this little heart wall quilt from a pack of mini charms she won at a previous meeting.

Plus Nancy showed the first 4 blocks of her next baby quilt. This one very special as there is a grandbaby on the way!

Jackie O showed us another great quilt she has made for the Adel Alumni, in Adel colors, of course.

This one, also made in school colors, is for an old friend going through a tough time.  Love this pattern!

Trish also has a grandbaby coming and she made this little quilt from Moda's Thicket fabrics and Flo's pattern.

That same baby will be a great-grandbaby to Margaret  so she made this little quilt for her.

And here's Flo  with a bag she designed and made from a Thicket panel.  See the inside next.

Kathy  also showed us a bag. These are English Paper Pieced Hexagons. See a close up of the machine quilting next.

This is a comfort quilt Kathy made for a friend in treatment.

I modeled a neck scarf made for me by my niece from a neck tie.

After a discussion on setting quilt blocks together, we enjoyed a snack and drew for prizes.

Thank you to Jackie O for taking all these pictures for us. It is always a special time, sitting with my Quilt Circle of Friends once a month to catch up and laugh.
