April Jelly Race

 Jelly Race

On April 11th we held another "Jelly Race".  We started at 7:00 p.m. and finished at midnight!  If you thought you could sew fast, you haven't reckoned with my whistle and stopping to eat and play games. :-)

Liz and Nancy sewing fast!
Joyce and Susan sewing away while Lynette tries to figure where she's at.

Arnell, Julie, Bev, Pat, Andrea and Melanie - all concentrating on their work.




































 Quilt Tangrams - How fast can you make a 12" square, using all the pieces you are given?

Special Delivery Fabric

Special Delivery Fabric

We had this great juvenile fabric called "Special Delivery" come in from Quilting Treasures.  Now to decide what to make out of it.  It came in two color ways: Blue, Green & Gray and Orange, Yellow & Gray.  It is such a darling line, we just had to make something special out of it. 


Finally, we came up with using the "Perfect 10" pattern by "Swirly Girls".  It shows off the fabric and makes an adorable quilt.  Let us know what you think.


Thanks to Amber Cox for making and quilting the quilt.
