Hey Quilt Group Friends,
I want to make a charity quilt for my sister's group home this year and I am wondering if you would like to help?? Several years ago a few of you made a Woven Ribbons block from quilterscache.com to get me started and this year I would like to finish it. The blocks are 12 inches finished, 12.5 when you make it. We started with a red, white, and black theme. Put the light color in the corner so the ribbons will visually weave better=) Let's see what you can come up with!
Thanks a million,
Donna

January Quilt Group 2013
January Quilt Group finally!!!
Our group was so glad to get together again.
The Holidays, Weddings, New Babies.........
Mary Ann P. Was our host and it was a great time together.
pattern is from "Garden Club Quilts" and it is about 70 x 90 (give or take). Some in the group just might be interested in making it this next year. |
Mary Ann also had this on her machine. A little baby quilt she is quilting . It is going to be adorable. |
Maryann O. is starting early on Christmas ornaments for next year. She made some this year for friends and is doing more next year. |
Maryann O. also taught us how to make the fabric flowers. It only takes a minute and can be used for so many different projects. Thanks Maryann! |
We were all glad to have Rachelle back with us for a few months. She has been making Knitted Scarfs Some of Rachelle's scarfs. She says they are real easy and fast. |
Rachelle did a challenge with her Cactus Patch group. This is her Round Robin quilt she got back after a year. She loves what the others added to her quilt. |
Rachelle's New Years Mystery Quilt |
Rachelle's Quiltville Mystery Quilt. This quilt is huge and look at all the little pieces. WOW! |
Check out the back of her quilt.... unbelievable. |

Kathee finished a warm and soft Flannel quilt for granddaughter. The granddaughter requested a rainbow of colors. Perfect. |
She had enough left over to make a baby quilt. Very good use of scraps. |
Hedy is still working on her "Women of Courage" Quilt. Hedy is so precise and every block is perfect. Nice Job Hedy. |
Jan called this a blast from the past with her "Pinwheel Retreat"Quilt. Added some applique and a fab border. |
