The ladies have been busy working on the February Block of the Month - the disappearing 9 patch.
Three new ladies joined from Meetup! How great is That?
Srilatitha dropped in to see what the group was all about - yes YOU can too!
Jean was the morning team cheerleader welcoming returning Meetup! ladies and welcoming new comers Sylvia and Amy - Way to go ladies! Welcome! It sounds like Amy is so hooked she took home a bag of squares to make the disappearing 9 patch!
Pam and Paige stopped in during the day (and they were painting the kitchen at home too!) to get advise on the kits Sarah created earlier (Great idea Sarah!)
Sandy provided guidance to Pam and Paige on pressing those new blocks to make them crisp while demonstrating how to keep seams straight when sewing.
Brendalee! Great to hear you were able to join in the fun! Brendalee came from Woodbridge, VA.
Thanks again to Sandy for her help given to Brendalee on binding Brendalee's new quilt!
Ladies, that is what we are all about - sharing our knowledge for a common cause!
Tell others, bring friends, gosh they don't even need to sew - we'll just hook them on the friendship!
Glenda completed her quilt top from the beautiful orphan blocks and was on a quest for backing material.
Sue O picked up fabric from Arhaus in Tyson's Corner that will be used for Quilts of Valor.
Estelle got hooked on crumb blocks - she made them all day! Go Estelle!
Glenda made a carrot cake to share for lunch and convinced all the ladies on their New Year's resolutions the cake was great for the diet conscience.
Hey Deb stopped in to drop off baby quilts she had quilted and she finished one with multi-colored fireworks exploding on a white background (did you see the pictures on Flickr ?
Marion finished one quilt top of the January block of the month and we may have enough to make one more!
One more remarkable day of over 20 ladies sewing and quilting for Quilts of Valor and Quilts for Kids with pediatric illnesses.
Quilt On!
Sarah Y for Kathy
