Come Quilt With Me!

Today was our Anniversary Quilt Day! Our quilt group has been together for four years...we have such a great time together. We met today at Heidi's home for a fabulous time, a delicious lunch, and a few hours of sewing. Heidi always goes over the top to make sure our time is well spent. So it is time for a little quilt talk!

The long summer days produced many quilt projects. This post is full of some incredible quilts made by some talented quilters. If you would like to see, read on........Unfortunately, my finished quilts are up in Utah waiting to be quilted! I feel left out! But they have been shown in previous posts! Anyway, we have so much fun oooooooing and ahhhhhhhhing over each other's projects! So here comes the quilt show!

Carol finished this cutest Christmas Quilt.
The quilting on it is
incredible!

Kim made this in about 2 days.
It is for the former YW President in
her ward. Kim is the new Young Women's
President.....woop! woop!

These two are always up to something! These are their
Christmas Gifts for friends. They are sooooo cute!

This has to be one of my favorite quilts ever!
Michelle is a fabulous quilter.

Michelle did this quilt so fast. She got the pattern at the

Long Beach Quilt Show this summer. When you wash
it the squares fray!

I think Michelle should give it to you Kim!

Andie just got this quilted...it is a really cute pattern

Okay, I am really jealous here!
This is a Houston project that a few
of us took on. It is a technique called
square in a square. It is hard
to learn and remember. We all spent some
time and money on this. Elaine and Michelle
finished....what about the rest of us?

Debbie did this for her daughter that is
getting married in two weeks. She always
makes them a Log Cabin Quilt...Cute!

Debbie is giving this quilt to the same
daughter for her wedding....What
can I say? Her girls are so dang
spoiled!!!!!

Heidi made this quilt to practice her Applique.
It honestly turned out soooo cute. The colors are so great!

We all come for the food!

As a quilt group we usually come up with a fun project to do together. This year we decided we would pick a quilt pattern and then we would individually choose our own fabric to complete the quilt. In March we will bring our completed quilt to our monthly meeting and show it. It will be fun to see what different fabric was chosen for the same quilt. This is the quilt we have chosen. It is on the cover of McCall's Quilt Magazine. It is an "American Jane" pattern. Check out their website!

Finally, Heidi gave all of us the cutest gift. Her daughter, Beth, creates designs for wall boards. She designed this one for us. We all thought it fit perfectly! There is nothing better than sitting down at your sewing machine and knowing you have two or three hours ahead of blissful sewing! Undisturbed, of course!!!! (A cold Diet Coke is a must!)
