Virtual Meeting - June 8

Welcome back . It has now been three months since we last met in person. I am glad we have this way of staying connected. I see that many of us have been keeping ourselves busy, playing with fabric.

Which leads me to the thought for the day:
When you magically find fabric that you forgot you had, is it Fabricadabra or Stashcovery?

I don't have a tip this week. If anybody sees something they found useful, please send me the information so we can all share it.

Now, if you have your coffee poured, on to Show and Tell!

Anita's first project is from scraps from a quilt she affectionately called "The Nightmare".

This lap quilt was made from scraps from a kit from Connection threads. She was going to give the top away, but her long-arm quilter likes it so much, she is keeping it.

Barb Karim brings us a quilt she says is an "oldie".

Carol McFee has finished her hexie quilt. Krista is going to baste it for her, so she can hand quilt it, next winter. It is made up of about 9000 half inch hexagons!

Janice pound has finished her quilt called "Starry Log Cabins". The second picture shows a closeup of the quilting by Stella Gray.

Joy completed two jelly roll quilts for Victoria's Quilts.
The first is a Missouri Star pattern and Joy used a jelly roll with a pinked edge, something she won't do again.

The second is a much easier keyhole pattern.

Kate has been making masks. I have been using a pattern created by a two quilters. the pattern can be found at https://www.bestdiyfacemask.org/

The Bear says it is a bit big. They did add children's sizes to the pattern, this week.

Lynda Smith finished hand quilting this quilt in May. It is called Coxcombs & Berries and the pattern is from Quilter's Newsletter, from the old days when the magazine came in the mail.

Maureen Foley send a favourite of hers from a few years ago. This is the Sunflower Panel from "Expressions of Morris".

Nicole bought this kit called "Raindrops" about 3 years ago, and has finally gotten to finish it.

She also finished this quilt top from blocks donated by Anita. It will go to Victoria's Quilts.

Pat Nyenhuis sorts her scraps by colour and stores them on hangers. She used up much of her green hanger on this quilt.

Her daughter has already laid claim to this one.

Pat's blue hanger is becoming a bed size quilt.

Susan Noad was working on this while we were still meeting at the church but hadn't gotten very far. All her time at home has given her time to finish it.

I see we are making good use of our time in isewlation! Our next "meeting" will be June 22. I look forward to seeing what you have been doing.
