July Show and Tell

 There was no topic for July.  Members shared projects they have been working on.

Tam made this colorful scrap quilt for the Habitat for Humanity Auction this fall.   Tam drew up the pattern after seeing another quilt with similar log cabin blocks.

June Show and Tell

 Sue brought a number of projects to share with the group.  Sue used donated blocks to make this table runner.  It was her first experience working with a flange binding.

Sue hand embroidered the blocks in this table runner and used crayons to color the pictures.  The designs are Sue's creation. 

This is Sue's May Challenge fabric.

She used the fabric in this framed picture of flowers and bees.

The following photos are of Sue's red and white quilt with red work embroidery.

Nancy used paste paper to make this box and the book inside.

Below are some photos of other paper paste projects that Nancy has created.

Tam used a strip set to make "Be your own Kind of Beautiful".  It was based on a book by Ricky Tims.

Tam brought in some of her father's drawings.  He used them for engraving firearms.
