Our quilt guild met today for our scheduled sewing. Karleen started things off with a short business meeting and then we had "show and tell". Although it's summer and we had fewer in attendance, there were a lot of beautiful quilts to enjoy.
Mary showed us a Mystery Quilt she made awhile back. It's beautiful, isn't it?
Her granddaughter is graduating high school next week-end, and she made this lovely "film" quilt for her. What a wonderful surprise it will be! The pictures she chose to print on fabric are of her granddaughter, friends, family, and special buddy. That buddy came to check things out today. Adorable!
Karleen calls these the peacock quilts, because the prints are peacock themed. They were stitched by one of her friends and quilted by one of our guilt members. Both of these quilts are gifts for an upcoming family reunion. Someone sure will be lucky to receive them!
Louise is the first in our guild to complete this year's Mystery Quilt. It is gorgeous!
And we had a little visitor today named Joaquin. He kept himself entertained by playing Minecraft on his iPad while his mother cut out quilt blocks.
As is customary, we all looked forward to potluck and all the yummy foods that people brought. The conversation was just as good. My tea thermos came with me today, filled with Yorkshire tea. It was a good day.
What a lovely day you had. So inspiring to see such gorgeous quilts. They are all amazing but I really loved the film quilt for the grand daughter who is graduating. That is so personal and so special and done in such a unique way.
ReplyDeleteSpending time with like-minded creative people is great. Love the quilts you showed. Beautiful work.
