Simple Whatnots Gathering

We had our last monthly meeting of our " Simple Whatnots I " group this past Tuesday. I believe we all had a good time. Linda Johnston and Mary  Amiot  each won a bundle of  9 patch blocks. So they are set to make another quilt if they wish.  Nancy Hall and Deb Whitlock each won thier choice of one of Kim Diehl's books. There was show and tell , which I hope to share with you here....

This is Dawn Leitch's " Pitcher quilt " pattern was in Quiltmania.

Georgia did "Hopscotch" by Kim Diehl.

She also knitted some quite cute American Girl doll clothes!



Gail had sewn up two of Kim Diehl's patterns also!

Gail also does sewing at her church and brought one of her donation quilts to show also.....
Love her scrappy binding!
This is Linda Johnston's little Kim Diehl quilt.
Mary Amiot had quite a few small quilts from Kim Diehl's collection. She had them layered and reay to quilt! Busy lady.












This is a quilt by Lori Strubel's for her  grand-daughter,  "Morrocan Tiles " by Heather Mulder Peterson.
Lori also embelished parts of a panel with wool and thread.
Hope you enjoyed our meeting too! Chatter later,Martha.

Onward!

  I have been doing some more sewing of flying geese, the past couple of days.  I have made some progress as I have about twenty sashings total sewn now.  Here are pics of what I have finished so far. I also got back another lap quilt from the quilter and I have sewn down the binding on the front side. In the evenings I am enjoying hand sewing the back side.   I also purchased some Applipops  , which were a bit on the expensive side($35) and decided to try them for all the circles in this quilt. They are not worth the price in my opinion.  To each his own. I prefer my mylar circle washers, There are many more sizes and easier to use.

Daughter Called

Image
My daughter called and asked if I would make her a couple of quilts! Of course I said yes, I love sharing my quilting with her. She  found a block she liked on pinterest in black,greys and white. I drew out my pattern on graph and began piecing until I got this.... and I found the most perfect soft snuggle backing.... So I now just have to take it to the quilter! I have also put up a small Christmas tree in the living room. I finished a small churn dash quilt of Fig Tree fabrics that I started at retreat in the beginning of November. I also finished my candle in the window log cabin quilt.... I started a few circle  blocks. I am going to use various blue backgrounds with my Kaffe and Tula scraps. All for now,chatter later, Martha.
