WOO-HOO - NEW FACES!!!!






Hi Everyone:
Great meeting last week!
Lots of  Show and Tell
and great instructions and
inspiration from Anna for
our triangle challenge.

And here she is - the
wizzard of the triangle!!!
Showing off her stuff!!


Four new faces at our
meeting and three of them
already had stuff to show us.

First, Robyn and her beautiful
Batman quilt!  She's proposing
to hand quilt it - and we all wish
her well, especially those of us
who have given up and resorted
to machine quilting  (all in the
name of saving time, of course -
more time - more quilts!!!)


                                           
                                               Now, on to Linda. She took Audrey's workshop to make turrets and got right at it! And what a super result.  A really fast learner - AND a super fast worker. Looks like Jae and Rita might just
have some competition!!:)







Next is Cindy.  Cindy is starting and most of us recognize the sketch pad AND the hand piecing!!!
How many of us are going to make a quilt by
hand ever again???!!?  Good luck, Cindy!!





On to our regulars - here's Barbara with one of her inspiring quilts - all fused! What fabulous colour!!!








Rita, - the top one is just strips of
scraps - had to believe it could
look so amazing!!

The second
one, squares in squares.  Rita
likes to work with solid fabrics
and does so quite successfully!!!









                                                                   
                                                                                         Sandra, with two new ones.

Top one is "Snowbirds" - fabrics from Vermont and the lower is the first for the 'preemies' at the Royal Vic.











 And last, but definitely not least,
is Jae.  You can see Jae is a little
camera shy.  I don't know why,
she does beautiful work.

Jae's sewing machine is not working
right now so she decided to do some
cross-stitch - pillow covers - 2 of them.
Isn't it beautiful???!!


 Pina was with us also and hopefully she will have
something to show us real soon!

That's all for now folks!  What a packed evening!!!

Next meeting - Crazy Hankie Workshop by Diane on Nov. 19th.
And don't forget, Christmas dinner at Linda's on Dec. 10th, 6:30.
This year it will be hors d'oeuvres.  We always seem to have WAY
to much food, so we're trying something new!

Happy quilting everybody!
Sandra
