Mission Accomplished!

Each quilter that arrived had a mission ... or two ... maybe four!  What a small, but productive group of members! 

Cece prepared this Santa themed Log Cabin top for quilting!  It will be a fun and festive addition to the Holiday season!
 

Amber came with supplies to make organizational zipper bags.

A lot of skill and work goes into this type of bag.

Second one done!

Next one will be made by this piece of fabric printed into 12 fat quarters!  How fun!

All and all ... Amber completed a total of three bags!  With each one, she made adjustments and improvements in the pattern!  Each a work of art that serves a practical purpose.

Audrey got busy right off with completing this piece of art!

Look closely!  The applique pieces are made with snippets left over from piecing quilts.  All those little scraps most of us throw in the trash ... Audrey turns them into art!  It is stunning!

Next she worked on a "mystery quilt" that she has had in storage!  Blocks became rows!

Those rows became a quilt top!

Borders and done!  So fun to hear the story behind this finish!

She also shared this "Round Robin" project that she and friends had shared years ago!  It will be fun to see how she decides to finish it!

Another treasure pulled from storage!  This was the first mystery Audrey participated in years ago!  She liked it so much that she bought additional fabric to make it queen size!  She ended the weekend making additional blocks!

Barb came to cut and prepare projects to work on at home!  This was a beautiful autumn themed table topper!

Sam worked on a couple of projects over the weekend!  First up was this project picked up while traveling in Montana.  It is a 3 yard bundle kit.  You get three fabrics, each cut a yard. 

The quilter chooses where to use each fabric and then comes up with a their own layout.  All three fabrics were beautiful!  So fun to watch this quilt evolve!  

She decided to add a small inner border!  She raided her stash and auditioned several fabrics.

She played around with the half-square triangles and settled on a layout she liked.

Here is the center all pieced together!  It is so beautiful!

Sam also finished the borders on this quilt ... and it is now ready for the long arm quilter!  It is destined to be a gift!

It was such a great weekend!  We had fun celebrating everyone's projects!  Everyone came with a mission and we all left on Sunday able to say ... Mission Accomplished!
