THE KNOTTY GIRLS ARE BEING KNOTTY AGAIN

The Knotty Girls Stitching Bee met last night at the Attic Window Quilt Shop and again, they have outdone themselves in the Show-N-Tell department.  Maggie and her mother made this first quilt from a kit they purchased two years ago while in Chicago.  The Mill City Sampler is by Perkins Dry Goods.   This quilt is gorgeous!

Mary Holt (Maggie’s Mom) made this quilt.  All the pieced blocks came from her stash.  The Attic Window will soon have these Lori Smith patterns in the shop.  I would give anything to be able to piece like this.  These blocks are perfect!  

JoAnn (left) and Phyllis (right) worked on their Sue Spargo BOM that they started last year.  I wish I had taken a close up for you.  These women can take a piece of plain wool, embellish it, and make it look stunning!  

Oh Fransson has a free pattern for a birthday cake quilt.  Do not picture the traditional birthday cake.  You make this darling quilt from a Moda Layer Cake.  You’ll love it.

Stay Positive!
