Quilt Block Holder

One of the greatest things about the quilt group is sharing ideas! Tori brought this to class and we all wanted to make one! It is a simple holder for blocks being worked on. It  holds them out straight so you don't have to keep ironing them as you want to see them all laied out together.

So we figured out a pattern and we spent a day make our own. Here is some pictures of some completed in class. Most didn't decorate theirs on the front, but it serves the same purpose.

Quilt As You Go

With the Quilting Group starting up again for the new 2010 year, Teri came up with a great new project that several are doing. We will post their pictures as we have them completed. This is the one that Teri did so everyone could see a completed project. it is a quilt as you go project. As you sew the strips together, you sew through the batting and the back. Some great color choices have been selected - can't wait to see some finished projects!

Cathy's Rag Quilt

Last fall Cathy and I were at a Family Camp where all of your children were content and happy playing in the beautiful hill country while several of us Mom's got to take some time to sew. Cathy has been collecting this material for some time and we finally had a few hours to put it together. I left the brown boarder at home, but we got the center part done that week. Cathy even did most of the sewing on this project!!!! She wasn't looking forward to it, but ended up feeling extremely accomplished!
