The New Girl…

There’s a NEW girl in our Club House Quilting group and what a nice addition she is!!  Fits in like another pea in our pod!  Her name is Siena and she is from the Sunshine Coast of BC (Canada) and her and her hubby are snowbirding in Desert Hot Springs.

We asked her to bring in a few of her quilts…and bring them in she did!! Gorgeous! 

Here they are all stretched out on the Club House floor…

Siena machine embroidered the emblem inside each block and..she owns a long arm quilter and does all her own free motion quilting…wish you could see how beautiful her quilting is!

This quilt was huge…the colours were gorgeous and look at…

Oh…and did I mention that Siena is also a fellow GO! mama…only she has TWINS!!  She has one AccuQuilt GO! machine at home and one here in her Desert Hot Springs home!!  Now THIS is a GO! lover!  Yes, I think we are kindred spirits….

Speaking of the AccuQuilt GO! machine…I have some exciting new to tell you TOMORROW!!  I was asked to write a Feature Spotlight for AccuQuilt..and it’s being released TOMORROW!  The project that I made using my GO! machine is done in WOOL…and it’s dang cute!  As you can see I CANNOT keep secrets so I better go before I spill the beans!!  See you tomorrow…I hope!

Have a Terrific Tuesday and Happy Quilting!~P
