Program:
Jane Anderson presented a quilt she had made called Simply Squares. Hers was made with floral fabrics. Jane demonstrated how you start with fabric cut into rectangles, which is cut apart and sew back together, and you end up with squares on point. Jane’s quilt was beautiful.
Jane also showed her “Quilted Ladies” pin she had made and gave members a face so we could make our own quilted lady. See photo:
Show and Tell: Monica Prim, Vicki Lawrence, and Jane Anderson showed their work. Jill also presented Block #6 of the block of the month and showed her quilt completed with block 6.
The next meeting will be July 6, 2010.
