Last time I went to Maryland Live! I didn't win big, but I'm still happy about it!
That was some stay-at-home bee, wasn't it? You'd think I was sewing and quilting all month long and should have a trunkful of stuff - not!
But I did get a good start on another house quilt among other things, using a lot of my black and white fabrics.
We had great show n tell at Saturday's bee, as usual.
This cute bee block was shared by Marlene, using a stained glass technique. All the black parts are actually the background square.
Sandra E. made this mask using her own pattern.
She was inspired by a workshop she took in March at a 54-40 Quilters Guild retreat.
Carolyn asked for suggestions on a name for this bicycle quilt. It was partly made from feed sacks, so a few of us suggested "Recycle".
Carolyn created the bicycle!
Marlene's shoes!
I was in a shoe block swap a few years ago, where'd I put those pesky blocks??
It was all followed by a string workshop, where I shared techniques on how I made this star quilt.
Do you recognize the bag-o-scraps in the background? They're the leftovers I rescued from the guild meeting in March, hoping they'd all fly away.
Sadly there are still some leftovers!
That's it for now, sew forth and sew on til later ...
I'm glad to see you're back! I've been missing your things to be happy about!
ReplyDeleteOnce again, sew creative. What a great group of quilters. Love your house blocks, I’m making houses too, along with a church and a few trees. One of these days I’m going to do a string star quilt. I just love yours.
ReplyDeleteLove those house blocks. I need to make some but haven't gotten around to it yet. You have a talented bunch
