Welcome to the online version of our Show and Tell. I know those who have been attending the gatherings have been enjoying seeing what everyone is working on. At the last gathering, I even managed to thread my needle.
We have a nice selection of pictures of projects, and a lovely surprise. I'll start with the surprise.
Our friend Kamal is currently visiting family in India and will be back in January. She has sent us a couple of pictures of her trip.
Thanks, Kamal. These are a delight to see.
Anita made some things for her church bazaar.
This is Anita's latest finish.
Chris Mitchler has been catching up, and sent us pictures of several of her recent finishes.
Helen Anderson has sent a picture of some of the quilts and tops she is taking to Florida for the charity work of the quilt group she belongs to there.
Judy Emond has 4 quilts ready to donate.
If you think that the second and the fourth one look a lot alike, it is because she had originally planned to make a king sized quilt for her own bed but decided it was too light for a home with a dog. So she split it into two quilts.
I discovered an interesting internet challenge program, called Project Quilting. The introduction can be found here. https://kimlapacek.com/project-quilting
As a warmup, Kim, the organizer, posts clues to a mystery quilt, for about 7 days around Christmas. In 2021, I completed the mystery quilt, entirely from my stash, with rather interesting results. If you look closely, one of the prints is bats.
I also find the challenges that make up Project Quilting to be a great way to improve your skills and use up the ever growing collection of fabric pieces.
Speaking of scraps, Lynda Smyth has sent a picture of her amazing hexagon quilt.
These a 3/4" hexies.
MaryAnn had some half square triangles leftover from another project, and they are now her new Christmas cushion covers!
That is a great set of pictures.
As you are decorating over the next little while, be sure to snap a couple of pictures for our December Show and Tell.
