There were 6 of us meeting today. I spent the afternoon pinning 2 very large and 1 small quilt. Mic Pickard brought in a bin of donated fabric to be sorted and Deb Chapman helped with that. Diane Placek brought back a pile of pink 9-patch squares. Bev Minnerly and Ellen Hein worked with her to add other squares from our stash to complete the quilt design.
The group split into 2 teams and laid out a couple more quilt designs before the end of the afternoon.
Show and Tell:
Bev was very busy this week. She came with several walker bags,
some doll clothes,
Diane Placek has been busy making face masks with the plastic inserts for people who need to show their lips for lip readers.
Ellen made a tote bag to carry the quilts we are working on.
She brought in 4 of the quilts I gave her for binding.
This green one was the first result of my request for 9-patch blocks to be sewn out of our stash of 3.5"squares. Pat Pipa turned in a stack of green 9-patches. I added the combo green and white components. I gave Ellen 8 more quilts to work on and she brought me a stack of quilt tops.
Laura Tomich left 5 zipper bags and some dog bed stuffing in my cart.
Ann Knoff left several dog beds and a bunch of bags of fabric scraps in my trunk. I sorted through some of this when I got home and filled 1 very large and 2 regular size dog beds after pulling out a small pile of usable pieces.
Next week's meeting will continue with a similar agenda. Hope to see you then.
