The last several weeks I've been really busy sewing, quilting and embellishing a couple of quilts for the Lake Quilters Guild Quilt Show this weekend.
"QUILTING... The Thread of Life"
will be held on April 13 & 14 at Trinity Ecumenical Parish, Rt 122, Moneta, VA.
Friday, 9:30-4:30 Saturday, 9:30-4:00. Admission: $5 Donation. If you are in the area, come by and see all of the quilts. (over 100).
I did this last year as a block of the month. It is MaKenna Ryan's Beach Walk pattern. Last year I had finished all of the blocks but then it was full on holidays... There they sat.
Only when I realized about a month ago how little time was left before our quilt show that I got busy. I actually finished it a week before I had to turn it in! NOTHING LIKE DEADLINES to get us moving.
This is the other one that wasn't finished. It was a round robin quilt our bee did. We each ended up with a quilt.
I also sewed the pieces together for our Bee project.... 1600 inch quilt. Next week we get together and put the borders on it. We each brought 42- 2 1/2" strips, put them in a bag then we passed the bags around until we all had 42 strips again.
Here is my 1600 quilt so far.
Sew See you later!
