The above Sashiko book pillow was made by Rena from my Needle Keeper group ❤️
Paula from Little Bits is working on these blocks which are a great way to use up scraps! (I wish I could remember the name of the block 😬, comment if you know!)
I was helping hold quilts so I didn't get great pictures of show and tell at the guild meeting, but there were some great show and tell quilts there! And a bag!
Some great books in the Cherryhill Bookbarn!!
We had a visitor pop in to Needle Keepers today - Theresa! She lives out of state but is here visiting her Mom and came to stitch with us today 😊. And we benefitted from her marvelous show and tell 😳. The quilt above is made with one inch squares! It's a little hard to tell from the picture too, but the fabrics are bright and wonderful and just make the whole quilt feel happy 😊
She is a master bag maker too - these are just professional. Don't you love the orange zipper with the turquoise zipper pull? 🥰
And Rena finished her Sarah Fielke Coming Home quilt top! This quilt was complicated with a LOT of hand appliqué and Rena just did a beautiful job! 👏❤️

Had a lovely get together with the Little Bits today, including Annie (sitting at the head of the table) who is 97 years young! She is an inspiration to us all!
Some wonderful Show and Tell!

Sherida made the cat!
And Bobbi's embroidery is stunning 😮❤️
Need a book to beat the summer heat? Come on over to my Little Free Library! Got some good ones in there! 😊
I attended both guild meetings last month and here are some show and tells from both! All are amazing!
Can you believe the one above is a rug?? I would not want to step on it... It's too pretty!!
The quilting? Wow!!
Some show and tell items from my Little Bits group a couple of weeks ago.
Eleanor's beautiful jacket that she made - I love it!
Two art pieces by Sherida. I love the self portrait below ❤️
Some true miniatures by Erin!
What a talented group we have and a shout out to Craft Addict Junction who lets us meet there each month. Thank you, thank you! 👏😊
Q is for Quilt, R is for Rudolph (must not have taken a picture of that one yet), S is for Snowglobe, and P is for Present! I'm still have fun working on these and I also got Leaf #11 done yesterday. 😊
My friend Rena made one of the animal quilts! I really, really want to do this! she did such a great job, it's for a lucky little baby ❤️
And Nancy is working on this amazing quilt! It's turning out beautifully - can hardly wait to see it all finished! 👏
I was asked to give a trunk show presentation at two of the locals guilds this month, both on Wednesday, one in the morning and one in the evening. I was nervous about it, but ended up really enjoying it! It was fun pulling out my quilts and sorting through them, including these two - one made by my great grandmother Dora Bell McPherson and the other by my mother Melba Willard. The quilts in the pictures below are some that I've made. Doing the presenting also made me realize how much I miss the guilds! I've been rather lazy about going since things started up again after the pandemic. Anyway, it's time to get back and socialize with these lovely friends! Cheers for quilt guilds and Quilty friends! 👏❤️
Oh and a big thanks to my CEO hubby who hauled 50 quilts in and out of cars and unloaded and loaded them up from both meetings. He truly is the Carry Everything Out guy!! 🥰
This Show and Tell is from my Little Bits group way back in March! This is a very talented and diverse group. We started out because we liked making miniature quilts, but now I'm not sure any of us make true miniatures much anymore. Fun stuff though!
