FINALLY February

 I have finally gotten this new computer to work like I need it to but it was a struggle.  Thanks to daughter in law Casey for helping me figure out a few things.
It seems like forever since we had our February meeting and I now need to see if my notes are good enough to comment on all the pictures and projects.  I ask for forgiveness ahead of time if I get things wrong.
Our program was so fun...making the felted wool eggs you see below.  Claudia did a wonderful job with the materials and the directions for this fun project.  I have almost finished my less than perfect first egg and now know what I will do different with the next one.   Thanks to Claudia and her helper teachers for their patience!
The pattern to the left and the cute duck below are patterns that they created for us.  Sooo cute.



 These are some of the more perfect eggs that Claudia brought to show us.
 Barb has a great little quilt that I think was from the work bee.  I did not take any  notes on this one!

 Chris brought this stunning blue quilt that is made from 10" strips and 6 inch blocks.  Pauline brought her log cabin quilt below that she made for herself and quilted in a crosshatch pattern.
 Connie continues to wow us with her wool quilts.
 Ruth has made several baby quilts for friends and this is an adorable blue one.
 Joan continues to make quilts with son Bobs block patterns.  What a talented son!
 I made this quilt with my daughter in law Casey to help her learn how to piece a block and make a quilt.  It is made from scraps from my stash, except the black, and really turned out wonderful!  The pattern is called Baby Bricks and came in several sizes.  This is the larger size block
 This is a block of the month that Della did last year...really eye catching!
 Della also did another bargello that we did last fall...great colors.
 Vi made this for her daughter in law and even used some of the blocks for the back, below.

 Barb has been busy with baby quilts and gifts and this is only one of many she showed.  She has been busy busy busy!
 Judy brought several purses she made and this one above is the Emmaline bag...a free pattern...but she did not put in the special snap piece and felt it worked just as well.  Great job Judy!

 Pat had several items to show.  The wolf is applique and she designed it herself.  The dancing cat is so adorable and the flower wall hanging  below is stunning. 

 Bev made this unique stitch and fold wreath..actually made several this season and  finished the snow man below...an UFO which is adorable.


 Pat did a great job on this bright table runner.  Below Pat continues on with her adorable small quilts.
