February Meeting

We had a very fun filled, inspiring February meeting. Judy Snider came and brought 25 beautiful quilts that she made. She also came representing Bonnie Hunter's trunk show which will be held in Jackson, TN on March 5, 2011 At the Holiday Inn. It is call Peace by Piece and is sponsored by the Jackson Quilt Guild. This will be a treat for me because I have been using several of Bonnie Hunter's quilt patterns from her website quiltville.com. On this post I am sharing the quilts that Judy brought, we oooohed and awwwwed and was inspired to go home and get busy. Here are some of Judy's quilts.

Eye Full Of Paris (Eiffel of Paris) Arts Around The Square

Well here we are in October already, and it has been a great and wonderful year for our guild.  So much has happen, many projects completed. 
In September, we showed our stuff at the "Eye-Full-of-Paris" Arts Around The Square that was held on the last Saturday in September.  That was also the day that we had our drawing for our donation quilt.  We all wanted to win this quilt but the lucky winner was. Rick Albin, who is the husband of one of our members Kimmy Albin.  What a surprise for them.  I think she will enjoy having the quilt as much as he.

See the big grin on their faces?

We has so many beautiful quilts at the fair that day, everyone worked very hard to make it a success.

Cuddle quilts some that will be donated to the Le Bonhuer Children's Hospital

Denise was so kind to let us display this beautiful quilt. 

Mildred Puckett and husband. Where's your hat?

We are a very good looking group. And this is not all of us.

We had fun at our meeting in October and lot's of show and tells, do you wonder where we find the time to do all this creating? Here are some of the items.  I did not get a chance to take a picture of all the items because my camera's batteries were low. But I was able to get most of them. If I did not get to take a picture
of your quilt, please bring it to the January meeting so that I can take a picture of it and post it on our January blog post.
