Boy…am I LATE!

You aren’t allowed to sleep in on the day when the clocks spring ahead!!  Yikes…I’m REALLY late!

So while I fly around making the coffee…YOU have a gander at what has been happening in our Quilting Clubhouse…

I think this is Roxanne’s Christmas runner… gorgeous and would look perfect on my dining room table back home!!

A visitor to our park was hand stitching these….

She kept saying that she was not a quilter but took over this hand pieced job when her grandmother passed away!  Beautiful!

  9. The majority of the quilt projects have a rather spring look. The gals must be tired of winter.

  11. Paulette,

    Could you ask Sienna how she plans to finish those Trip Around the World blocks. In 1971 my Grandma was in the midst of making me a quilt when she passed away quite suddenly. I have over 30 blocks with raw edges and the squares themselves are postage stamp size. I would so much like to finish them but don't know how. All the directions were in her head. Thanks, Daisy
