Challenge Meeting and September's Meeteing

Our annual Challenge Quilting voting meeting was hosted by the Greater Salt Lake Guild on September sixth. Thank you so much for to the Greater Salt Lake Guild for hosting and to the awesome ladies who finished and entered a quilt! The quilt could be any size or design, the only rule was that it needed to include five pinwheel blocks. Here are the entries.










 The result were announced at our September Meeting on the thirteenth. Congratulations to our winner!
We also had some of the other ladies bring their entries to this meeting, so here are the quilts and their creators.




Some of the members shared their progress on our BOM for this year.




I think we are going to have some lovely quilts!
Our basket for Quilt Fest was also displayed. It included many lovely fabrics, as well as pattern books, and a couple of darling dolls. Thanks so much to everyone for their wonderful donations!

Tina shared some blocks she will be donating to help fight breast cancer.

We were also thrilled to be able to see some of the member's quilts from past challenges. Thank you ladies for sharing!









And last but by no means least here's this month's Show and Tell.






See you in October for our work meeting while some of our ladies are at retreat! To all the ladies attending retreat: Have fun and take pictures!

July Meeting 2012

Our monthly meeting was last night and again it provided a wealth of inspiration. We had some lovely pillowcases donated for our year long pillowcase project. These pillowcases are donated to service men and women receiving treatment for PTSD. Thank you so much ladies!
 Check out this lovely Block of the Month quilt. Isn't it beautiful!
Our program was presented by Dianne and the subject was making dish rugs. First she showed us some finished examples.



 Then Dianne demonstrated how easy and fun they are to make either using plain fabric or orphan blocks.

 Show and tell was wonderful as always. So many lovely projects!

























 Next month's meeting is August 9th. Hope to see you there!
