• January Sewing Circle

  Today I joined a group of precious ladies for our first Sewing Circle of the new year.

  

  This quilt was knotted and will be given to a family who lost most of their possessions when their house was flooded during hurricane Sandy.  It’s for a son of one of the ladies in our group.

  A lot of good conversation and friendships are strengthened during the day.

  
  
  

  I started the girls on piecing a new quilt top called

  “Simply Woven”.
  Here are the 13 blocks we completed.  35 more to go.

  

  A lot of cutting, sewing and ironing goes into each block.

  

  Wava’s doing a great job!

  

  Delores keeping that machine a humming.  I love sewing with these ladies.

  

  Darlene does all the binding on the comforts that are knotted.  I remember years ago when I was a new bride coming to sewing and enjoying quilting with Darlene’s mom Mary B.

  

  

  “Sew-and-Tell”
  Kristen showed a purse she made out of jeans she purchased at the thrift store.  So creative!
