August Meeting 2022


 

August Meeting 2022

The Block of the Month

was a Friend Ship sailboat.  

It was exciting to see how 

members chose fabric for the sky, the water, and the boat.

What fun to see everyone's ideas and designs!!!




JoAnne shared her sailboat piece, inspired by the Friend Ship BOM.  She put two ships together in the night.  She chose a nighttime fabric for the sky and added the constellations in the sky.  Very creative!
