Kay is giving serious instructions to someone . . .

WOW! Look at Sandy's colorful quilt top.

Cherri started on her first block of our 'Quilt as you Go' project!

Jatana kept right up with Cherri.

Kathy is concentrating on something special.

Evelyn and Cherri are both cutting fabric as fast as they can.

Sandy looks like she is having a great time.

Kay pieced this beautiful block. Glad she used black in the border.

Cherri, Evelyn, Kay and Kathy are all hard at work.

Jatana is trying to figure out that pesky little quilt block.

Evelyn has a number of her 'Quilt as you Go' blocks finished. Don't you just love the green and purple?

Kay's fingers match her jacket.

Jatana is an art quilter at heart. Isn't that just beautiful?

Cherri has her second block finished.

Jatana made two blocks just alike.

Kathy made a baby quilt for her new grandson due in February 2014. She is really on the ball.

Jatana has another block finished. YES!!

Cheri is on a roll.

So is Jatana! Aren't those colors soothing?

YIKES - Cherri is really trucking now. What beautiful blocks.

Sandy has a great start to another quilt. Beautiful Churn Dash colors!

Goodness, every time I turned around, Cherri had another block.

Kathy finished the baby quilt. She quilted it and bound it herself. Way to go!

OK Cherri - you can stop making blocks now!! Your stars are so pretty.

Debbie started on another quilt top.

Sandy made more quilt blocks - the colors are just spectacular.

ANOTHER SUCCESSFUL RETREAT!!

Christmas Party - 2013

Cherri was the lucky first one to pick a gift in our annual gift exchange. What a lovely scarf made by Barbara! Cherri needed the scarf this week as our temperatures dropped to the low 20s.

Jatana came all the way from Austin and look at the great gifts she received from Darlene.

Sandy guarded her gifts from Cathy like her life depended on it!

Cherri and Kay admire the beautiful blown glass ornaments that Debbie received from Jatana!

Louise got a load of neat stuff!

Bea looks warm in her bright red scarf from Evelyn.

Barbara received a really beautiful quilt from Bea! But is was gone in the blink of an eye!

Barbara had to give up her quilt to Dee.

Not to fear . . . she got some lovely gifts from Jewell.

Evelyn got this beauty of a table topper.

Cathy got these beautiful pillow 'slips' (that is pillow 'cases' to all of us but Sandy). These were made by Sandy. This one is for fall.

This one is for spring!

Sue got a DVD - The Life of Pi - a great movie.

Jewell is busy opening her gift.

Dee came all the way from Canada and got fat quarters and home made ornaments from Debbie.

Darlene got one of those terrific lights from Ikea! We love those lights!

Oops, Cathy stole from Dee.

Louise stole from Evelyn.

Evelyn had to pick again!

Billie got the neat quilt rack from Cherri and some home canned goodies!

Cathy wearing her fat quarters so no one will steal them. Glad she didn't put them down her pants, although she did threaten to do that in order to keep them!!

Last but not least, Kay was the last to pick since Cherri decided to keep her first choice gift.

Can't say I know what is so funny, but we all had lots of laughs, as always/

Jatana looked very festive in her lights and top-knot!

Jewell gave Barbara the quilt Barbara lost! We all were teary-eyed. Jewell is a jewel.

Last minute good-byes.

Time to clean up and go home!
Here's to another great Christmas Party! And in the words of Tiny Tim,
"God bless us, every one!"

November Meeting 2013

Barbara and Darlene are holding up Darlene's scrappy quilt. This quilt was made from scraps that Kay gave to Darlene! What an interesting quilt!

Another of Darlene's quilts . . . this time she used the log cabin blocks. Another beauty!

Debbie make this wall handing at a mini-retreat with her Dallas group. Can you believe this, too is the good ole' log cabin block? Very versatile . . .

Cathy is showing a quilt she made from the "Austin Modern Quilt Guild' block exchange. Who would have thought orange and blue would look so awesome!

This is the back of Cathy's 'modern quilt'.

October Meeting 2013

Kay is showing off a lovely antique quilt.

Kay and Kathy are showing off another lovely antique quilt belonging to Kay. Love those log cabin blocks!

Cathy finished her 'Card Trick' table topper . . . beautiful blues!

Kay is really getting into the autumn spirit! Makes you want to roll around on that quilt. It looks like fall leaves!

Kay made a beautiful table runner to go with the fall quilt!

Our newest member, Loma Alford is ready to quilt! Look at the lovely colors she picked out for our autumn project.

We believe she likes bright colors, just look at her shoes!
