Jean has finished all 36 embroidered blocks:


Jean used a cotton sateen finish fabric for the embroidery blocks.  Can’t wait to see this king sized quilt!


The Jason Yenter fabric is SEW gorgeous:


Jean will now work on the pieced blocks...


... Which will require many HSTs:


Jean also shared a tool called the Bloc - Loc trimmer, which produces outstanding results:



Britt...



... Showed us her now complete Twined Rug:


There was some mention of moving the rods to change the way that the edges came out:


Britt almost ran out of the fabric from the duvet that she cut up for the rug.  Eureka!  She discovered extra strips of duvet fabric in the garden.  Her husband had used some of those strips to tie up the tomato plants!

Ruth S. wasn't with us this week, but Dee Dee picked up her Pineapple block from Ella...


Joy stopped by to get it from Dee Dee, as she will be assembling our Pineapple Pieces donation quilt top:


Here is a close-up of the stitching that Ruth added:


Virtual Additions...

Deborah, our illustrious scheduler, shared the beginnings of her sewing space redo:


Storage AND a new sewing table:


Dee Dee worked on the Curved Geese table runner she designed:


These are her fabric selections:


Thank you to Deborah for scheduling our meeting and taking notes!  Thanks to Candy, this week's fill-in hostess.  Thinking good thoughts for Joanna, as she heads to the doctor to find out why her hip is hurting so much.

Until next time...
BEE sew safe!!!
