Class

On Wednesday and Thursday of this week, the guild had teacher Jan Krentz here for a two day class. The project was a broken star design from her book Quick Star Quilts and Beyond - I'm doing the smaller version with the 3 inch diamond template. The photos are from the class when we had finished cutting out and had put the pieces up on the "design walls" (flannel backed table cloths or batting taped to the walls). I got about a quarter of it pieced in class. Finished one more seam the next day at home.

Rainy Day!

Charity Quilt Block "Martha Washington Star"

I made the block for the guild's charity quilt; the assignment was to make a 12" block of our choice in 30's print with unbleached muslin.

I worked on the Friendship Medallion. The mitered borders are on. I still need to square it up, baste and quilt it. The bottom two photes show the half-square triangles that Edyta Sitar, Alex Anderson and Ricky Tims autographed.

This Week

Farmer's Wife Sampler #10 Bowtie

Making Border for Friendship Sampler

This week I started working on a secret project, so I'm getting behind on the Civil War blocks.But I did finish a Farmer's Wife block.
I also worked on the border for Friendship Sampler - want to finish the top for show and tell at Sept. 12 guild meeting. I found the inner and outer border fabrics at Stewart's in Mt. Zion, and the middle border on the guild bus trip to Kokomo IN.
