August and September Quilt Group

Happy Birthday to Jan at our Quilt Group
Jan's  Birthday was on the day we planned quilt group. 
We were all able to celebrate with  her. 




JoAn was our wonderful host
Luann started our show and tell with her red barn.

She is doing her Farm Girl Blocks in Red White and Blue. Fabulous. 





Hedy brought a couple of bags to show what they make at the Humanitarian group she attends every week. 
These bags are made for Newborns in Need. 
Vicki took a page out of Donna's book and bought this quilt top for a great price. 
 Awesome Small Dresden plat quilt.
What a great find.
We were glad to see Kathee again. 
Showing us a good deal on swaddled fabric. 


Kathee is getting a jump on a baby quilt for a new grand baby. 
Sweet little girl blanket. 
Even the Back is great 
Debbie is showing one of 6 "Eye Spy" quilts.  
She is making one for each family. 
Look at this colorful quilt Debbie made for her 8 year old granddaughter. 
The best part is it is made from scraps from other quilts.
 I love scrappy quilts 
We had to take a picture of Mary Ann's bag she brought her projects in. (I don't know why I got closed eyes in these pictures)
The cute flower was over the top. 
Mary Ann has made Pigs, pigs and more pigs. Can't wait to see this finished quilt. 
Great color choice for this quilt. 
Awesome! 
In honor of school starting, 
I am trying finish this alphabet quilt.


I will probably add a scrappy binding. 
I have been loving the Farm Girl quilt blocks by Lori Holt. While I was sewing the Farm Girl blocks I remembered the Farmers Wife Quilt I started a couple of years ago.I told myself I had to finish the Wife before I could work on the Girl.
It was good motivation because My Farmers Wife is ready for boarders and 
I am up to date on Farm Girl.






The Cupcakes for Jan celebration
JoAn made these cute pin-bowls for each of us. 
I guess a gift for Us and Jan on her birthday.



Another wonderful evening together with good friends... 
That just happen to love to Quilt!
