April Jelly Race (cont.)

 Jelly Race - (Cont.)

Have you ever tried to thread a needle at 11:00 at night?  That's what our two teams did, only each team had to thread a whole package of needles! Some couldn't even see the needle, but they persevered!

Joyce threading while Arnell and Nancy watch.

Sometimes reader glasses just don't help as Lynette threads the needle and Julie watches.

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!

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.

Spicy Spiral Table Runner

Spicy Spiral Table Runner

Myrna Draper took our Spicy Spiral Class and made this great table runner.  It is such a fun table runner to make, and very addicting too!  It requires only 8 fat quarters for the top.  Purchase the fat quarters or use your scraps.  Quilt it on your home machine too!  You can also use it as a wall hanging.

Contact us for class information.
