If it's Tuesday we must be sewing.......

Finally, after several month of not being able to come together to sew, we are at it again. Tuesday is our day to sew and we gather as a group to work on what ever project we need to work on. Each project is as diverse as is the person making the project, but we all call ourselves quilters.

Mom's a new comer to the group, she may not be a quilter yet, but give us some time and we will convert her. Today I have her working on English Paper Piecing. Someday we will have enough hexagons to make a "Scrappy Grandmothers Flower Garden".

Judi's is busy working on her Applique` today,a skill she has certainly mastered. This will be a  Calendar Quilt when she completes the project and you would not beleive the detail Judi has put into each of the blocks that will make up this quilt.

Victoria is working on a care quilt that our larger group, Piecemakers, has taken on as a project this year. We are making quilts for the Special School in Clinton, Victoria is the leader of this project. I am just amazed at the number of quilts that have been made so far and they are still coming in. Great going Victoria and all the other Piecemakers that are helping make this project a success. Mary Lou is busy hand sewing hexagons together adding to her "Grandmothers Flower Garden Quilt" blocks. This quilt is going to be absoluatly beautiful when it is completed. Mary Lou shows us some of the fabric she has used to make her hexagons. Each piece has been fussy cut in order to get the perfect flower to make each hexagon.  I can't wait to see the completed quilt.

I worked most of the day cutting fabric and sewing strips together making a tube of fabric for a project I am teaching next month at Piecemakers called Bargello Placemats.Till next time, hope you have a wonderful day.
