February

 Not much for show and tell for February ... I'm often pokey getting the pictures loaded on this blog but this time I waited and waited for members to send me their photos ... maybe we will have lots for March! 

Moira made this modern masterpiece. It is really stunning. 

I made a valentine mini quilt to hang in my dining room/home office. Everyone needs a neat backdrop for Zoom meetings. Its my goal to keep up with the holidays this year ... wish me luck! I'm usually two behind. 

These tops were made by Sandra for the guild. I was happy to donate the quilting time for them. 

Notice the little hand near the bottom of this shot ... 

That's all for a chilly February.

January

January has all cooped up at home again due to the Covid-19 restrictions. We have been navigating our Zoom meetings fairly well, though nothing beats getting together. 

I know everyone is home sewing, sewing sewing but our January show and tell seems a bit thin. 

Everyone teases me because I love the hopscotch pattern so much, but I just can't help myself. It is a great pattern to whip up quickly and to use scraps and other odd pieces of fabric from your stash. I have been sitting on these bits of Oh Canada fabric pieces for about five years. Best I sew it up! This our warm and cozy Mountie quilt. 

My helper is trying to trick you all, pretending to nap. 

Another stash buster complete! Feels better to hold a finished quilt than trip over a box of scraps. 

Sandra made these sweet stash buster quilts for your grandchildren. I'm sure they will love them. Let these be some motivation for you to empty some fabric bins and get sewing. It has inspired me to get digging into bins some long forgotten fabric bits. I think we all have more stash busters in our future. 

Gladys was busy. She made these sweet minis for Christmas gifts. 

 If you have show and tell please send to my email ... sheri-lyn-fox@hotmail.com 

Stay warm, stay safe and get sewing up your stashes!

December

We've all been busy at home under lock down measures again. As we celebrate a different kind of Christmas this year, lets celebrate our good fortune as our guild members all remain healthy. I am full of gratitude and good tidings this year. I hope December finds you all well. 

Our virtual meeting and online show and tell continues ... 

Rae made these two sweet quilts from her stash

Sandra S. made this lovely quilt with some friendship stars she won at the guild last year. Truly a cherished piece. 

Sandra whipped up a lovely Christmas throw to keep herself cozy

Dallas finished this beautiful rainbow throw and two others which she mailed off as gifts. 

November

Sadly, our in person meetings have been halted again due to Covid-19. We are all, thankfully, safe and snug in our homes. Lots of time to sew, sew, sew! I think in many ways, this is poised to be our most creative year yet. 

Show and tell has been trickling in and I am happy to post it for members. Please email me at:

 sheri-lyn-fox@hotmail.com to have your pieces added to this blog.

On to show and tell .... 

I've been sewing advent calendars to beat the band. 

 

Phyllis has been busy! 

I'm ready for a Christmas table. I've made a million of these easy peasy placemats!

 

Vivian finished this gorgeous woodland quilt. It looks as good from the back as it does from the front.  

Marg, busy as ever! 

Rae quilted up this sweet runner, I'm thinking out of a few scraps. Lovely. 

Sandra has been making big and small. Lovely fall quilts!

Stay safe and happy quilting!

October

I thought it best to get our October pictures up before the November meeting! 

As we did in March, Manitoba is moving to code red precautions so our meetings are moving to the virtual world.
