It was another very hot day outside, but 15 ladies braved the heat to enjoy the air conditioning in El Santiago this afternoon. I brought a box of miscellaneous donated fabric, our 6.5” squares, some batting scraps, wrap n zap, and insul-brite. We even had one new Villager checking us out to see if she wants to join our club. Today’s objective was to make some more tissue holders for the October sale. A couple of ladies cut and pressed the pieces, and Mic sewed them. We now have about 2 dozen of these completed.
Show and Tell:
Carolyn Grasso made a couple of microwave potato bags.
Mic Pickard turned an orphan applique I gave her into a great tote bag.
Ceal Pedersen took a pile of quilt blocks that were donated home last week and came back today with a complete quilt top.
Pat Pipa showed a garden flag she completed.
Bev Minnerly turned in a bunch of potholders
and 2 dog bed sleeves.
and a wallet.
Ellen Hein showed 2 quilt tops she is working on
Jean Peters made a couple of walker
bags
Patty Woodruff showed a tote she made from a jelly roll
and a pencil case.
I showed some hot pads I finished. These came from a bunch of 6.5” squares of
fabric and matching batting squares. I
just added fabric from our stash..
+++++++++++++++
Next
week Ceal is going to show us the correct way to nest seams when making a
quilt. I will probably bring the same
supplies I did this week. If anyone
wants something else to work with, let me know. As a reminder, we keep some
zipper bag fabric, zippers, buttons, and the box of large orphan blocks in the
closet. You can pull any of those out to
explore any week.
Hope to see you next week.
