13 ladies attended today. I got out the future raffle quilt and quilted it. The ladies at the end of the table were busy making Snowmen for their church bazaar. Betsey was finishing a prayer quilt for her church. Edith was knitting a butterfly blanket. Marguerite and Tina discovered that they both owned the same lone star quilt kit so they conferred about that. Jean also has one but isn't sure where it is. It must have been a popular kit years ago when they all bought theirs. Cathy M. was binding a beautiful pink and green quilt which was one of her Flying Geese block of the month quilts. She had it quilted by Linda Denner who did a fantastic job! It was a quiet day comparatively with everyone getting back to the routine after our long Memorial Day weekend.

20 ladies attended today. We had lots of show and share. Daryl had been given 2 yo-yo quilts and an unfinished piece of cutwork. Plus she had made two baby quilt tops for charity. Jean Kallop, back from Florida, showed us her storybook baby quilt for her new grandson. Betty Smith always surprises us with her quilts. Today she had a Sudoku quilt. The fabrics were chosen for her by the guy from the Woodstock quilt store and what a great job he did! The fabrics went together beautifully! Hope Heath had a nice quilt top she had made with lots of bright colors. Marie was wearing another of her wonderful pieced vests. And Julie showed off her San Francisco purchases. Linda O'Connor brought her sewing machine so that she could give extra help on the bags she showed us last week. Next week Judy Schedlbauer will be coming to demonstrate the 4-patch posie pattern. It's fun and easy so come prepared to cut, pin, and play! But don't think we've forgotten about our knitters/non-quilters--there are always a few of them scattered around the tables and we love to see what they're up to as well. With many of our ladies what they work on depends on what they grab as they're leaving the house--fabric or yarn! We are a multi-talented group who love to socialize!

19 ladies attended today. Linda O'Connor was on hand to teach us how to make a purse out of pre-quilted fabric. Several ladies came ready to sew-fold- & sew some more on their bags. Next week we should have a nice little show and share. Also, Linda will return if people run into problems and need more help. Marie brought in a variation of a grandmother's flower garden quilt which she is hand piecing using the English paper piecing method. This is very time-consuming but allows for great precision. Daryl and Pat have been making small baby quilts for a charity from Massachusetts. Several knitters/crocheters were present. As always, a good time was had by all.
