Show and Tell

A small stitching group I belong to meets once per month. For various reasons it's been a couple of months since we last met, thus the reason everyone had lots of show and tell. Here is our Little Jo's club quilt. Mine is the one on the left side. We have our next Jo's Little Women club next week so I'll have more of these to show you.
Two more Little Jo quilts. They are all so lovely.
This small tulip wallhanging is actually made from a paper napkin. Don't ask me how she did it.
Isn't this a sweet little pouch.
A couple of little friends that dropped in on the party....teehee. I wanted to take them home with me...I tried to hide them in my bag but they hopped right back out again....LOL
I love this bag, she's even added leather handles.
Another great looking bag.
This quilt is using 30's fabrics and grandmother's flower garden appliqued in the centers.
Just tooooo cute!!!
Little Jo club quilt.
These 4" LeMoyne stars are hand pieced and put in a frame that she bought for .50 cents. I love it!!

I'll have more Jo's Little Women club pictures to share next week.

Have a great weekend.

Blogger Meets Blogger

Pam and I have been talking about meeting for months and we finally found a good time to meet at a local quilt shop. The shop just opened a month ago and we thought this would be the perfect place. Maureen the shop owner thought it was a big hoot that we picked her shop. Maureen showed us all the new things in from Spring Market and then we went to a coffee shop for Curry Chicken soup....Mmmm it was sooooo good. After lunch we went back for more shopping. I couldn't resist a bag pattern and fabric with owls on it....another bag, I have no will power (Pam why didn't you stop me...LOL) it was just too cute to leave behind. I'll show you the bag when I get it together. I had such a good time chatting with Pam, she is a real sweetie. We are planning a road trip in the future with more shops on the list. Blogging has it's perks!! Thanks Pam for a wonderful day!
Maureen is the shop owner with her well behaved little dog (can't remember the dogs name) he is the nicest dog and sits under the table quietly staying away from under foot. Maureen is giving him a treat in the picture. Creative Edge Quilting is a unique little shop with lots of surprises in every corner. Sorry I should have taken more pictures, well I'll try and remember on my next trip. The fabrics range from pastels to trendy brights with a little bit of reproductions. Very cute shop and only about a 20 minute drive from my house. I'll be visiting Maureen more often since the shop is so close to me.
