TRY A LITTLE TWILLING!

Above is a different picture of Barb David’s beautiful  quilt.  I think I showed it before but this is a better picture. 
This is a close up of one of the blocks.  A new Twilling and Embroidery Bee has been started and the blocks in this quilt will be part of that bee.  The new Bee is scheduled to start in May.  Call the shop for details.
Above is Pauline’s quilt.  She is part of the ongoing civil war group that meets on the third Wednesday each month at the Attic Window Quilt Shop.  Cathy M. also attends that group and took this picture for me.  Cathy wrote me that Pauline did this all with hand embroidery, celebrating Michigan with the various blocks: Apple blossoms, cherries, the Big Mackinaw Bridge, winter, etc. That is amazing! Thanks Cathy for sending the picture for us to see.
 
ON ANOTHER NOTE: Lynn of Alamosa Quilter has a great tutorial for a basic tote.  Check it out!

Until next time,

Stay Calm! Stay Kind! Stay Positive!
