Virtual Meeting - November 7, 2022

 As most of you have heard, Pat Nyenhuis, a longtime member of the Poole Creek Quilters, died last week. 

Her final quilt was finished (with help from some friends) in time for Pat to gift it to her granddaughter. Special thanks goes to Krista for doing the quilting so quickly. This is the quilt.


I didn't get a lot of pictures this month. However, we have some nice ones.

Carol McFee finished hand quilting Stardust Serenade.


I see we have a photo bomber here. Good to see that the quilt passed quality control inspection.

Carol also made little tote from Yoko Saito’s book Handheld Patchwork Treasures.


Dianne Wilson completed the Laundry Basket Mystery Quilt for 2021. She gave the quilt to friends for their 50th wedding anniversary. Dianne says she has know the happy couple since they were 3 and 5 years old.


I have had sewing to do for other people lately and nothing of my own to show, but knitting continues to occupy my hands while I watch TV. This baby hat is called the Fruit Roll Up Hat. It is now in my completed knitting bin, because somebody will need a baby gift.


MaryAnn has been working on a Harry Potter quilt along and finished the final block for her version of the quilt. This is Hogwarts Castle.


That's all I have for this month.

Next month is December's Christmas Special Show and Tell. I hope you will send pictures of gifts you have made, or handcrafted Christmas items that you use to decorate your home. Let's see the stockings, the wall hangings and the tree skirts. I know you have them. 

Show and tell will be December 5, but I will happily receive pictures any time from now until December 4.
