JANUARY 2021

WE MADE IT!

We started off with old and new business as usual. Some great ideas were thrown around like a sit and sew day. I know I could use a full day of sewing with the ladies. 


We had some beautiful fabric sets for door prizes.




This is our December block lottery block. The 4 patch heart block. Getting us ready for February. 💕




This is the January block. HST with Kona Snow. We will start with a 5 inch block in the orange/red family. Four pieces will equal $1.  Don't sew the four together.



Loree brought handmade mittens for our guild fundraiser. These are adorable!



Show and tell time!





The program presented by Natalie this month was a refresher course on modern quilting. We found some examples she had made from a past program and it was interesting to see that some we considered not to be modern back then, seem to be accepted as modern now. 



Next month's program with be using and Pineapple Trim Tool. Natalie will be our teacher so we are guaranteed to learn a lot!



Lots of good food as usual.




Loree showed us these adorable note cards that she had sewn fabric onto. I never would have thought of doing that!






 December Quilt Guild Meeting


Christmas Party Time! We started with old and new business.


Our newest member, Sally, presented the block lottery block for January. A cute 4 patch heart block!


We then had show and tell time. Quite impressive what everyone has  been up to! 


These blocks are adorable!!


We are going to learn how to make this traveling block keeper and I can't wait! 





We learned about One Common Thread quilt kits that help employ women. So cool!


More show and tell time




Loree made a beautiful Christmas box full of goodies for the raffle 



We also had a dirty Santa fabric swap. Boy was this fun! SO many beautiful fabrics were swapped. Mostly everyone behaved themselves. LOL










And of course we had to play Bingo!! It is becoming a tradition. Laughter, friends and fun!


Go Sally Go! 👆


Not sure why Natalie didn't like my kitty cat buttons. 😅








So many prizes and so much fun! The food was wonderful and we can't wait to do it all over again!
