Summer Sewing

During the summer months most people leave the Kingdom for cooler places… But for those who have still been here, the Guild organized a sewing day each Tuesday in their quilting room. I have been most weeks, and today I went again to have some fun. Elizabeth was going a little stir crazy, so she came along 🙂
We had a few bits of show and tell… Yvonne, who is next year’s guild president, finished these two quilt tops:
She was working on the binding on one of them today, they are lovely aren’t they? Two totally different styles… both very effective.
Judy, last year’s guild president, was working on this charity quilt for Japan:
It started out as a jelly roll race quilt, and then she decided to break it up and add dark blue…. I will get a photo when it is all done…
Gladys was working on some lace work today:
It all looks pretty complicated to me, but the end result is beautiful!!
I put the binding on the pineapple quilt I just finished quilting on Emmie G:
I love the way it has turned out! (Oh yeah, still need to finish it by hand…)
Had a break for lunch – yummy BLT with Beef Bacon (no pork allowed here):
Elizabeth also had a BLT with out the T…. 🙂 Funny girl… 🙂 We both love the Beef Bacon when it is fried up nice and crisp… mmmmmmm!!!!
I put the inner border on the Jelly Roll Quilt-along:
Only the outer border to put on and then up to Emmie G it goes! Yay!
Oh, I also started something new.. but forgot to take photos… so that will have to wait till daylight…
On that note, I will say goodnight – I have been yawning for the past half hour and it’s only just gone 9pm…! I’ll try to be back tomorrow to tell you about an upside-down world…….. 🙂
Your jelly roll quilt looks great! Congratulations on making progress on it! :0)
Lots of eye candy… love your jelly roll quilt…. great colours… and the pineapple one is on my wannado list too….

I just love the colors in your Jelly Roll quilt. It is beautiful.
How fun! And lunch looks yummy! The quilts look fantastic! Looking forward to more pictures…especially the one for Japan!

Looks like you all had a great time! All of the quilts look wonderful. Was there many people today?
Sigh… sounds like a perfect day!
The quilts are beautiful – all of them. Just love the first of Yvonne's – probably because those are the colours that appeal to me so much. It always amazes me how much can be done with a jelly roll. Love your one.
I adore the first quilt with the rose fabric and the lace work looks so fine!
Love your Jelly Roll quilt … lots of progress for you.
