September's Time to Sew Event

 After a busy summer, it felt good to gather together and quilt!  Everyone who participated accomplished a lot and had fun!

Kay hosted the event ... attending to all the details, ensuring that we were comfortable and had a great time!  Her efforts were appreciated ... we are grateful for a fun weekend of quilting!

Amber is infamous for accomplishing a lot ...

She created this super cute organizer ...

with multiple zipper pockets to keep any maker successful!

She finished piecing the Mystery that we did this past spring!

Another gorgeous top finished!

And ... this top was completed just as we were ready to clean up on Sunday!  

Angela and Marcela are doing the same quilt design, but in different color ways!  

Marcela sharing design details with us ...

... it will be "sew" fun to watch their quilts emerge!

Marcela's color way.

Angela's units added up over the weekend! 

Jackie came with  this project barely started.

Before long she had finished it!  Such a thoughtful themed design and fabric.

This is a BOM Jackie is participating in!  Each block contains intensive embroidery and small scale patchwork!  We are all impressed and are excited to see it progress over time!

Next up ... Jackie began this quilt that will be gifted to a family member!  

Here Jackie shared a pair of jeans that she embellished for one of her DILs ... lucky woman!  They are adorable!

Diane inspired us all by bringing a quilt she pieced and began hand quilting in 1989!  

We cheered her on as she made great progress!  There is nothing like the magic of hand quilting to make an an already amazing quilt exceptional!  

Kay planned to hand bind four quilts over the weekend!  This quilt fills the room with sunshine!  Beautiful!

Another great finish!

Kay loves participating in online BOM's ... this one involved using each block twice, reversing the colors on the second block!  Sew fun!

She is starting a new Block of the Week!  These are the fabrics she choose.  We all look forward to seeing it evolve over time!

This was a Block of the Week she participated in last year.  So very beautiful!

Thanks to all that came ... sewed ... and made great progress on their projects!  Thanks again to Kay for hosting and making it possible!
