Stonewall Quilt Retreat - June 2016


Kathy brought yards and yards of red/white checkered fabric to make curtains for Young's BBQ in San Saba! What a nice project.
Kay and Jack have 3 Oreo cows!
Judy is ready to sew although I think she is in her pajamas!
Mary Jo's quilt in the background is spectacular! Look, she is using her Featherweight sewing machine. Is she in her pajamas?
Yes, Mary Jo is in her pajamas!
Judy is working on a quilt for her niece which is made of squares from her niece's Mom's clothes. Her niece's Mom passed away several months ago.
Kathy's stack of curtains is growing.
Kathy is finished with the curtains and is on to project #2.
Judy finally put her clothes on!!!
So did Mary Jo!!
Judy completed the quilt for her niece. It is very colorful and scrappy. Her niece will love it.
Debbie finally finished her 'block-of-the-month' quilt.
Judy is playing games on her tablet, taking a break.
Judy is looking for food.
Mary Jo is looking at wild turkey.
Kathy completed project #2. She had a very successful retreat.
Mary Jo is still hard at work, but at least she isn't wearing her pajamas!
Kathy, Mary Jo, Debbie, Judy and our wonderful hostess, Kay! We had a terrific retreat!

Christmas Party Extraordinaire - 2015

Let the gift exchange begin. (Jatana has her foot right next to the table so she can get a head start.)
Jatana, Sandy, DeAnne, Bea, Kathy and Maxine wait patiently for the fun to begin.
Cherri and Andrea are waiting patiently, too.
Debbie, Mickey, Louise and Kay pose for a photo before the fun begins.
Kathy, Maxine, Crystal, Barbara, Kathy and Sue are still waiting.
And so it begins. Kay, Cherri and Andrea like this gift a whole lot.
Kathy got the beautiful pillow Maxine made for the gift exchange.
Kathy and Maxine admire the beautiful throw quilt Crystal made. Surprisingly, Maxine was able to keep the gift!
Debbie loves the coffee mugs with cocoa!
Sandy admires purple gifts from Bea as DeAnne and Bea look on.
Sandy is holding a wall hanging that Bea made with Maxine's help! DeAnne is looking rather suspicious. We need to keep our eyes on her.
Mickey and Sue are opening Mickey's gift.
Barbara and Kathy admire the cute pin cushion Sandy gave.
Louise (in her electric jacket) and Kay are loving this gift.
See how DeAnne is eyeing Bea's gift. Bea has no idea what is about to happen. You guessed it, the preachers wife broke the 8th commandment, Thou Shalt Not Steal!
What do Kay, Cherri and Andrea find so funny on the floor?
Barbara opens yet another gift as Kathy looks on. Poor Barbara didn't get to keep most of the gifts she picked.
Crystal is thrilled. She got the box of purple things.
The party is about to wrap up, but Barbara and Kathy don't have any gifts yet.
Sad to report, Sandy didn't get to keep that gift.






GOD BLESS US EVERYONE
