LET IT SNOW WHILE WE SEW

 
The Happy Scrappers met Wednesday at the Attic Window Quilt Shop.  The snow and cold kept some participants away but a few of us came and had lots of show-n-tell.  Above Judi A. showed us her latest fun stitching with her new machine.  She wears her Let It Snow proudly on her denim jacket.  It is darling!
While at the shop today Judi completed this beautiful cover for a tissue box.  She made all these snowflakes on her machine at home prior to class.  Oh, what fun time she is having.
 Peggy must have one of those fantastic embroidery machines too.  Above she shows us this sewing machine cover that she made.  All of this fabric is embroidered.
 Above, Peggy shows us the other side of the cover.  She created the iron, and large buttons.  I tell you that in case you think she brought the fabric.
And this was on one end of the cover.  I am in awe of this machine cover.  Peggy did a fantastic job.
Diana finally let me take a picture of her Snail At Sea. It is paper pieced and I've been pestering to get a picture.  She will be teaching you how to make this wonderful quilt on Saturday, Apr. 30.  Call the shop to register.
I had to show off my paper pieced quilt that I just finished.  I think I started this a couple of years ago at Happy Scrappers.  It was a fun quilt to make but I'm glad it is finally finished.

Caroll! Your quilt is a beauty! I'd be THAT happy with it too if I were standing where you're standing! There's actually a lot of beauty and cuteness in this post today!

Oh my! That cover for the sewing machine is to die for! Wonderful creativity. I know the machine does the work but you still have to choose the design and the colors! It is SO cool! And kudos to all the quilts in the post. I guess these are great days to quilt if we have to be stuck inside. 😊
