| Everyone settled in for a cozy meeting. A big thanks to Eddie (Deborah's DH) for helping set up this meeting with chairs and general tidying up! |
 |
| Jean is making an embroidery piece each month for one of the quilters and today had a surprise for Gayle! |

 |
| Cheryl already has her blocks completed with the fabrics from Ella's! Cheryl used the BQ2 pattern. |
 |
| Deborah has started on her Blooming Nine Patch....you know the old saying..."Slow and steady wins the race." Deborah's really thinking..."What did I get myself into?" |
 |
| Lynda shared a photo of her bubble quilt on her iPad. Joanna is taking a look. |
 |
| Lynda reported that finished the hand embroidery on Britt's butterfly quilt. How did Britt decide where the embroidered designs would go? She tossed pennies on the quilt to get a random, just right effect. Stay tuned to see Britt's butterfly quilt in a later blog post. |
 |
| Here's Lynda's bubble quilt on a table. Can't wait to see this quilt when it's quilted! |
