Virtual Meeting - June 22

Welcome back! I hope you are all surviving the heat. Wasn't it snowing, the last time we got together? Despite the weather, there is an impressive number of pictures for this week.

First. a Tip of the Week: I saw this video, the other day, and she shows us 5 ways to display our quilts. I thought you might enjoy it.

Now on to our Show and Tell:

Anita is still working through her scraps. She made all these quilt tops from the leftovers from a Connecting Threads quilt kit.



Anne Lacasse has been knitting.



Barb Karim is hand quilting her UFO's. She has completed 3 so far. Here are two.



Carol McFee is expecting a new grandson, this summer and sent this quilt in time for the new Dad to have it for Father's Day.



Doreen's grandson was with her when she bought the fabric for a quilt for him, last summer. He was asking her about it, so she finished it. Her grandson is a big train fan.



This is the back. Doreen thanks Anita for the idea.

She also finished an older UFO.  This was a block of the month from a few years ago.


Judy Case has finished her One Block Wonder.


Kate has been working on a Block of the Week. It is called the Summer Reading Stitching Club.


I started June 2, and am mostly up to date.

Kathy O'Hagen has finished her quilt called Pattie's Posies. The beautiful quilting is by Krista.



Kathy lost track of how many half square triangles she made.

Lynda Smyth made this quilt top in 2008 and quilted it during her time at home this year.


It is called Meadow Baskets.

Margaret Duncan is working on this cute baby quilt.


Marilyn turned some April Cornell napkins into a bright spring lap quilt.


A companion wall hanging is hanging nearby.


MaryAnn made this Bargello quilt from an excellent workshop given by Maggie Ziehl. Some of you will remember it as the day we met and the power was off.


Nancy took a workshop at the OVQG with Mara Praulins on turning your UFOs into a finished product. Her favourite block in the is "Eat Your Carrots" from a workshop by David Taylor.
Harry and Bailey are inspecting Krista's excellent quilting.



Nicole only managed one quilt, this time.


Pat Nyenhuis has finished her red challenge quilt.



She is calling it "Falling Leaves".

Wow, all of those pictures are wonderful.

Our next "Show and Tell' will be July 6. If you haven't sent a picture yet, I hope you will send one for that  collection.
