 For the second meeting of the New year, Marilyn began Show and Tell with this Log Cabin table runner.  Love the colours! Just  to show you we had a capacity crowd ......  Marion brought this really neat bag she made to show us.  Her daughter-in-law...THE real bag lady...Wendy showed her how. Not that she needed much showing when you consider she made this paper pieced table runner and it is definitely an experienced only project.  She showed these sweet little snowman wall hangings...notice the hand knit scarf....if all else fails, make the needed parts.  Beth has a baby coming into her life....no, no.....not hers!....but this makes an adorable quilt for  a little one.  Can grow some with it too.  She sure loves this retirement thing....she's catching up on all her UFO's. Including this table runner...with the Jacobean fabric...divine!  Treva says this beauty is going to a cottage. The picture does not do it justice...it is beautiful...well done, Treva

 Here's Marj starting the New year off with this wonderful cuddle quilt she quilted. JOyce thought she would put it in the shop at the hospital to help raise funds. Kay has grand babies galore and made this sweet quilt for one of them. She called it the Turtle Square. She also made this crazy quilt stocking for one of her grand babies. Such a sweet heirloom.  Vera needed a hanging for her "measuring" wall and this skinny snowman fit the bill. Susan's hubby is a fishing enthusiast and helped determine the correct colours for the fishing lures on the quilt that she made for him.  One must be accurate in depicting fishing lures!  Susan also won the Christmas fat quarters and used them to make this Yuletide Dresden plate table runner. Spring is Coming (just ask the snowman)  This lovely curtain pattern is available with help to put it together by Susan. Jacqui got into the pillow mode and made this great Autumn pillow......  and thi

It's back to the daily grind or should I say evening grind.  Here's Dianne's  Christmas tree mini...isn't it sweet. Jeannie made this snowman table runner with an added surprise...it will be corrected when she gets home and finds a way to take out the button on the inside .  Caroline made the skinny snowman and "birthed" it rather than add a border and binding...clever girl. Then she showed us this so masculine, made with batiks quilt she did for her son...lucky guy! JoAnne is working on her Canada 150 celebration quilt.  Love the fabrics she put together...not finished yet.  Linda got bag happy and made this one for her daughter...has a snap! But this one has a zipper that Linda put in ...all by herself...with no help from anyone. See, we told you, you could do it!  She had some trouble with her machine and ended up quilting this quilt to work out the kinks. She calls it ugly...we disagree. Now this beauty was made at the last minute
