I started writing this Blog early this morning.
I wanted to share a couple of the pretty Quilts shared at Guild last night.
This one started with the big Diamond hand sewn.
The other pieces weren't all there to make more big diamonds.
This Quilter, Lisa Woodbury, made the smaller Star to go in the corner.
It's amazing how she got the quilt and the story it will now tell.
Eddie Walker was in charge of the program.
This is her Round Robin that she did with a few friends.
The center Sun Bonnet Sue was made by her Mother.
Isn't it beautiful?
She asked me to bring my Round Robin and Row Robin Quilts.
You've seen them before.
No Mail Round Robin
2008 - 2012
Each week we were given a different block to use in a border.
My WASIQ Round Robin - 2008-2011
WASIQ (my online Group) did a Row Robin
2008 - 2010
SBS (Sylvia's Bridal Sampler) Round Robin
2010 - 2013
I took it to Colorado to a Book signing with Jennifer Chiaverini.
She signed the label.
Janessa liked it so I left it with her.
I had to borrow it to share Tuesday night.
I got a paper to start another one but it will have to wait until after the March Quilt Show.
I need to find a few friends to do it with me.
I think I want to use my Tula Pink Stash for it.
It's another Crayon Challenge
I think these are similar colors I got for the last Crayon Challenge I did.
That was in 2017 for the Tri-City Quilters Show.
I got 3 crayons that time and added a 4th color.
For Valentine's Day Hubby went with Janessa to Albertson's
Not my favorite but it will do.
Russell Stover is hard to find since our Rite Aid in Town closed it's doors.
He bought 2 cards so I gave him the 2nd one.
I made him some big Cashew Clusters and wrote on the foil.
It's our 48th Valentine's Day!
Paul's Aunt Valeea was born on V-Day and every year she used to send our children valentines.
I saw these and bought them but didn't get them in the mail before today.
Mailing them on Valentine's day counts, Right?
Paul spent the day at the Temple.
I sent a few for him to deliver in town.
I really had big plans to make Truffles to send with them to our Grandchildren on Missions.
They will have to get something more special at Easter, lol.
Tomorrow is Hubby's 70th Birthday.
We'll celebrate at Texas Roadhouse after we serve our shift in the Temple.
I've never done a round robin quilt--too many deadlines, and I don't need the added pressure. I quilt to escape the other pressures in life. :)
ReplyDeleteRemind which are your favorites of the Russell Stover, and I will see if I can find them here. We don't have a Rite-Aid, but I know I've seen the brand in a local store or two, and I could keep an eye out for them. ShopKo used to carry them, I know, but they closed a few years ago.
Those look like fun Valentine cards.
I dipped 11 pounds of strawberries and delivered them around the valley the day before and the day of Valentines. But I don't think I have ever made truffles.
Hope Paul had a nice b'day.
