March Quilt Guild, 2015 Rafflle Quilt & Quilting on Betsy

"X marks the Spot" Blocks were won by one of our new Quilters at Guild.
Congrats to Carolyn!
I left my Block home but will get it to her ASAP.

Here's the Block for May- April Meeting is our Quilt Symposium 
We have 2 months to make blocks.

"Yankee Charm" pattern is HERE
A suggestion was made to add some Blue corners or use Blue for part of the colored frame.
Then it could be a QOV block with Cream Background (pic color is OFF)
A 3" strip and a Fat Quarter of background is enough to make a Block.
If the fabric is directional it is tricky.

Oou 2015 Raffle Quilt was revealed! 

Tickets are $1
I'll have to get a good close up of the quilting.  It is KING Size.
Blocks made by the Guild members are Onery Husband and Contrary Wife.

"Betsy" was playing nice for a last minute finish before guild yesterday.
I quilted "Sunshine" on my Baby 'POP' Blocks Quilt 
Trying to get a Pattern Picture that shows true colors.
 Outside is best, but I get a shaded view- Yea for Sunshine in my eyes this week!
I took the quilts down to the Walla Walla Sew and Vac to take pictures on the wall.
The lights inside make the colors weird.
Trying again for a good view outside.

Next up for Quilting is 
"Through the Hourglass"
 66" x 82"
I got the 108" backing loaded. 
Quilting this is how I'll spend my Wednesday.
What quilting design will I use???

    Looks like you are churning out the quilts for your classes. Very pretty. I love the colors of your Hourglass quilt.
