Wednesday NIght Sew In


Wednesday night sew in .... a few of us gals decided that we would  get together once or twice a week to work on a project.   Last night was our first sew in.   Jane is making a mariners compass  quilt  for a nephew.  We took a class with Brenda Henning over a year ago.   Neither of us could  remember how to start so we had pull out our instructions and DVD to see  how to paper piece the compass.    It is looking prettttty good.    There will be four more small compasses added to the quilt.    I really like the black background, it looks like the compass is floating in air.

Sheila is working on a darling quilt for her granddaughter.    So cute with pinks, purples, yellow, and green.    The  print is  "Princesses"  of course!    




ME .... I helped Jane....lol     and made two pillows to go along with my new French cottage look once I get through painting the walls  AGAIN.    Order French chairs too!!

I really do want to know if you take some kind of vitamin, etc., that gives you so much energy to do ALL you do. I have a longarm that I've have for a couple of years, and I hope someday I will be able to do the quality of work you do. But, I need energy!!
