June 2020

We had another meeting on Zoom in June.  Peggy showed us a power point presentation on disappearing blocks that was very informative. About 10 of us were at the meeting and some shared quilts they had done with the disappearing block method. Peggy showed us that when putting disappearing blocks together you can come up with some great secondary patterns.  It looks like a lot of fun to play with.  Following is some show and tell that was emailed to me (quiltc@aol.com) .  If you email some pictures I will get them on the blog!  Also don't forget to look at Jill's post that shows what orphan block bundles are still available for you.  Peggy will drop them off if you are interested!

This is Diane E.'s latest crayon embroidery project... Can you say "addicted"?

Cathie's completed crayon embroidery.  The little angel is a free printable from Kathy Schmitz. Just go to her website!

Cathie's progress on her latest wooly embroidery project.

This and the following quits are all finshed UFO's sent in by Peggy.... 

Don't forget to look at the previous post that Jill put up to  see if you want to claim and finish an orphan bundle for our orphan bundle drive.
