October Quilt Guild

This has been a bad month for the quilt guild newsletter! First I lost my notes from the meeting then I couldn't find where I saved the pictures on my computer. Well I finally found the pictures but no notes so here is the show and tell without any explanation. I guess if you can see yourself in the picture you know what you made!!! If I find my notes I will identify the quilters later. Sorry!












Julie Saville came to our meeting and do a trunk show. Here are some of the cute quilts that she showed us. She does all of her own quilting on her machine and did an awesome job.










For November come early at 6:00 and learn from Holly N. how to make the little bag to hold credit cards/ punch card etc. you will need 2-10 inch squares of fabric and 20 inches of rick rack.

Quilt Label

This is just one example of a label I put on a quilt I made for my Mother-n-law.  Her Mother had passed away, so I took her clothing and made a scrappy quilt for her.  She just love it.

Block of the Month September

Ladies...........sorry I have been so slow at this. Here are the blocks for this month. I'll try to get the other colorway on here in the next couple of days. I hope you are having fun! ...Carol

It has occurred to me that this block would look really nice with the floral fabrics reversed.......you choose which you want to do.....I would keep the pinwheel dark..........

 

 

 

September Idea Share

Our idea share this month is- How do you label your quilt. Tell what you do, post a picture and or bring an example to quilt guild next month! Please include the info you put on the label, what you make your label out of, how you write on your label and how you attach it to the quilt.
