My favorite meeting of the year - the ice cream social.  Just one word for it - YUMMY.  After we dined (pigged out) we embroidered beautiful rose bookmarks.  Thanks to Brenda for the treats and MaryLou for the fun project.

Only one word describes our June meeting - YUMMY.  We have some very good cooks in our group.  The apron challenge was due this month.  We say many beautiful aprons in various styles, themes, and colors.

Cobbleston Quilts in Townsend showed us many beautiful quilts done in English paper piecing.  Some were from today and several were antique, over 150 years old.  All were beautiful, and such small pieces on some.  I am sure many of our members were inspired to make a few hexagons.

It seemed like everyone enjoyed themselves at the cathedral windows workshop.  I always enjoy learning new things whether it is a technique or just a little tip on doing something.  A big thanks to Dianne for a fun and informative evening.

What a show!  Informative and fun.  Kris Poor of Poor House Quilt Designs had a trunk show of her bags and totes.  Beautiful.  Her talk was also full of helpful hints and she had handouts for us. Her "Sew and Go Totes" book was for sale, she even autographed out copies.

We started off the new year with a visit from Beth Helfter of EvaPaige Designs.  She talked about how to be happy with your quilts little quirks and imperfections.  She showed us many of her quilts from the beginnings of her quilting life right up to the present.  She also had her patterns for sale.  And I, for one, wanted to purchase every one of them.
