March Quilt Group 2014

 March Quilt Group started early this month with some attending the Mesa  AQG 2014 Quilt Show.
After the show we went to JoAn's for our "show and tell".  JoAn knew we would be hungary and she had Soup and bread bowls ready for us. 
It was delish!


JoAn added fruit, veggies and fabulous caramel bars.
We were honoring our dear Friend
 Rachelle.
Rachelle is moving this month and we gave her a little send off from our group.
We will miss Rachelle and her creative quilting.
 She promises to keep us posted on the blog what she is working on.


We each made a block for her to remember us by.  

We will miss you Rachelle and wish you well!





Rachelle did bring some things she has been working on.
This is her progress on her "Red Chair Quilt"
She is well on her way.

Maryann O. started Rachelle on these hexagons.
Rachelle has done all this with hand sewing, mostly while traveling.
Love the colors.
Maryann O. found this  hand applique at a yard sale.
She is thinking of turning it into a quilt.

Vicki has a new granddaughter and has been making these adorable  skirts.
She brought about 20 to show.
So Cute!
She had even little bitty ones for one year old.




JoAn has making Dresden  Plate Quilts
This one she bought the blocks on E-Bay  (Edith Bay) and she created this wonderful quilt.

This is one she made out of  really great fabrics.

Love the boarder!

Glenna  (Me) started some of the letters From the
Moda Spell it with Fabric.
They go together so fast.
More to come next month.



Up to date on the Quilty Fun Sew Along with Lori Holt.
I couldn't wait for  Monday to finish another set of blocks.

Kathee finished the Quilting on a quilt for her
Granddaughter.
It looks wonderful!

Jeanene also finished the center of her Sew Along.  Different fabrics and such great combinations of color.
Love this pattern.

Jeanene made this Swoon pattern block.
It is a big block so Jeanene will make it a one block top.  Perfect for a table topper or wall hanging.

Hedy want to show one of her favorite tools.
She uses it to pick up thread, patterns etc.
 Saves the back while sewing.

Hedy is finishing the binding on the fun quilt for a friends Granddaughter.
After "Show and Tell"  JoAn showed off some of her other projects Projects.
This fabulous quilt hangs in her Hallway.


We all had to check out her bathroom to see her Chenille Shower Curtain.
So Creative.

These are some of her finds.
We call it  "rescuing" quilts.











Fun, Fun night Thanks JoAn!
