Jelly Rolls are my new weakness--I am afraid I may have


to give them up.  Green Fairy Quilts has been having such an awesome sale I had to limit myself.  I put quite a few in my cart but had to cut it down to two.  They arrived yesterday and are really awesome looking in real life.  Here are the 2 I decided on.



Odds and ends by Moda and 
Paris Flea Market.


Then when I really shouldn't have I checked out the Missouri Star Quilt Company's Deal of the Day and saw this.  It was such a good deal how could I pass it up?

I don't have any big plans for them yet but I love having them. I take it back it is not just jelly rolls but all fabric.   I have a few in the stash but used the benartex one I got last fall for a hexagon quilt that is turning out even better than I expected.  I can't wait to show it to you.  As soon as I get my computer back.

Sneak peak, Twister, fun fabric

Dianne brought her freshly quilted Twister and it is my favorite twister so far.  


JeriLu brought some really great giraffe fabric to show us.  Some of the ladies were wondering what you would use it for.  Not a worry for me as I keep fabric just because I like it.  I have fabric that makes me smile and I may never find a way to "use" it. 

And here is the sneak peak.  The Blocks for the opportunity quilt for the Festival are done.  Is that not the best Christmas fabric?

Eye Candy from Sew Night

This has been in the camera for a few weeks, sorry, I don't accomplish as much as I used to in the same amount of time.  And yet, time flies by.
Fun and Scrappy, I don't remember the name of this one.  If you are interested let me know and I will ask. 



Becky and Loretta took a twister class in St. George.  I think she said it was at Dave's Bernina.  Dave's donates the Bernina for the Quilt Walk each year.  

Helen is always coming up with something new.  She has made this cute neck scarf for a granddaughter.  What a  good sport she is to model it for us. 
Shannon is making these wool panels that will become a tree skirt.  




And this is Loretta's twister from the class. 



I think this is Mary Lou's fun top.

Jeri Lu made this one and I think I would love to have every fabric in it in my stash.  This is the pattern we will use for the opportunity quilt at Quilt Walk this year.

Show and tell at Quild

After the feast we had looking at Judi's quilts we got to look at some from our own members. Shannon Showed her wall hanging and then I showed a quilt I had been working on the binding for several years.  Lana finally took it and finished it for me.  It is not here as I didn't have anyone take a picture of it but it has been on the blog before.  




Sandy is making this baby quilt so she will be prepared for the next grandbaby. 

this was a quilt made by Mary when she was in seventh grade.  It was later stolen.  People had been on the look out for it.  She got word it was going to be in an auction.  They had cut the name out of the label and she had no way to show that it was hers.  Her husband went to the auction and brought back the quilt.  He would never tell her how much he had to pay to get it back.   

Sorry I can't remember the story behind these next three but I think they are great.  




Sheri was in Montana and found these great hankys.  She said it was fun just to sew them together and have a quilt top.   


She also found this piece of her favorite halloween fabric ever so picked up a few yards of it.  She then made a Halloween quilt.
