Nice use of birch tree fabric, and other plaid and camouflage fabric.

Blair worked with 1930s fabrics and made this soft, precious quilt.

Blair shared this quilt she made. The special effects created with lighter fabrics in the center and darker florals around the outside makes this an interesting piece.

Tina C. used one of each of our year's Blocks of the Month in this quilt.

Twelve months, twelve blocks.

A beautiful ending to a fun year of making monthly blocks.

Tina C. had fun creating Christmas placemats to decorate for a family gathering at the beach.

The blocks in this quilt were made by Ellen, who gave them to Tina. Tina then made them into a Quilt of Valor.

Blair shared this " Bats and Boos" quilt which was a mystery quilt. It is so clever!

Barb told us her son likes M.C. Escher's art so she made him a quilt based on the artist's work of tessellations. Didn't she do a spectacular job?

Here is the print Barb used as reference to create the quilt above for her son.

Tara always finishes so many pieces! Here is a tree quilt ready to use this holiday season!

Tara created these for a fundraiser. These pieces will be beautiful in anyone's home!

It is fun to see the colors and fabrics members used for their blocks.

Sky fabric, water fabric, and even night skies.

So beautiful!

We got to play Quilt-O for fabric prizes!

Betsey W and I decided we make quilt patterns even in our appetizers! What do you think of the snowball blocks and the grape border and the striped binding?

At our holiday meeting, members set up placemats and centerpieces to create a festive party atmosphere.

Handmade items were donated for our Silent Auction. There were quilted items, homemade jams, scones, and so many wonderful things!

Bidding took place throughout the meeting.

We had fun looking and chatting and deciding what we wanted to bid on.

A wonderful table topper

and Santa plates

graced this group's area.

It was fun to see how everyone decorated their tables!

When we arrive to our meetings, we check in, hand in our Blocks of the Month if we made any. At this meeting we played Quilt-O so we picked up a card in exchange for some 5" squares.
