First meeting of 2012

Happy New Year to all Quilters. This was our first meeting of the year. Julia handed out the first instructions for our Mystery Quilt. We now have to pick fabric and cut strips. This is the first time most members have made a mystery quilt so we are looking forward to what will come, except for the striped fabric!



 France showed off her pillow with lovely beading and a hidden zipper in the back. She will give us beading classes later in the year.




Rita was busy again over Christmas and had two quilt tops to show. There is always another baby or friend that needs a quilt! She puts us all to shame with her production. Her piecing is really terrific with her backs as good as her fronts.






Allison, Julia and Mary only had books for show and tell. Anna showed a challenge she was working on, but didn't want a picture posted. It's fabulous and we can't wait to see it finished.  Linda had a Celtic piece she was doing with Quilt University and taking on her cruise. Next meeting we will start our raffle quilt. It doesn't have to be finished until May 2014!
