LaVee's Scrap Quilt

This is LaVee's latest quilt that she got back from Debbie Neilsen.  Debbie quilted it for her.  LaVee told us that she now has all the quilts in her house quilted.  I am quite impressed.  

This is Helen on the left and LaVee on the right.  LaVee is binding her quilt.

This is Trish and Tabitha.  They are crocheting.  It is so fun to get together to visit and work on our own projects.

Quilt Walk Service Project

Our Quilt Walk Retreat will be doing a service project of making covers for the ladies going to get mammograms.  Our mobile unit here in Panguitch is in need of some more covers, so our group cut out all the covers instead of cutting out patterns for people.  Now we need volunteers to bind the edge and put snaps on them.

These are a few of the ones we cut out.  We will have them available at the Quilt Walk for people to take home and finish.  If you are coming you could even bring some binding and whip one out for us on your spare time.  They are all cut ready to go.  

This is Dianne cutting some out.

Jerilu and Lana folding the covers, after they were cut.  They will be really nice to get done and donate.  They said the mammo unit is in great need of these.  I am sorry to say that nobody was willing to model one so you could see what it looks like.

Buttermilk Basin Block of the Month

These are the Buttermilk Basin Block of the Month blocks that I have done so far this year.  Each month they have a new one out on the 15th.  Buttermilk Basin has great patterns.  These are free so check them out.  buttermilkbasin.com  I picked up this quilted back ground at a yard sale.  I love the look.  I really hope I have enough for the whole project.  The project is a mystery quilt.

I haven't decided if I am going to put the star on the sheep.  I like it with out.  This is January's.

April is so cute, probably my favorite.

This is February's block.  I think I will add some beads to this one.

March is not quite complete.  I need to add the bee and some vines.  I am really enjoying this mystery quilt.

Helen's Scotty Dogs

Helen is quite proficient at appliqué.  These scotty dogs are really cute.  She made this quilt for her great grandson.

Debbie Neilsen in Mapleton, Utah, did the quilting on this quilt.

Look at the cute button.  She had a different one on each dog.

Helen just finished this.  It is a mile a minute pattern.  This is for her grand daughter.

This is a panel quilt Helen made for her grand son.

The quilting is so fun.  Debbie quilted fishing flies into it.  Helen is really turning out the quilts lately.

A Nice Yarn Shop in Baltimore

I went looking for a quilt shop in Baltimore while I was there.  I couldn't find one.  I was only looking for one in Baltimore and not the surrounding areas because I was on my own with out a car at the time.  I went to two shops that according to the web, were quilt shops.  One I didn't even take photos because I was so disappointed the other was this little shop.  It is called That's the Point Needle Crafts.  www.thatsthepointneedlecrafts.com

 I thought they were very friendly there.  I had walked quite a ways and I sat down and visited for a while.  They are a new shop.  It was clean and bright.  They teach knitting classes and I am sure crochet also.  One lady had missed her class so the owner was letting her come when she could to learn what she had missed.

 They had all sorts of knitting and crocheting notions.  Cute stitch markers too.  I forgot to get a picture of the spinning wheel in the window.  I thought that was nice.  This shop does not teach spinning but they have all sorts of nice yarns and flosses.

 I did pick me up some lace yarn that will dye nicely.  I thought they had a nice selection for such a small store.

 Oh, I need to mention.  My friend said she has a hard time finding fingering yarn.  This shop carries it.  If you are in the area check them out.

Panguitch Sewing Night

This is one of Dianne's Daughter's.  Dianne was nice enough to show them to us before she gave them back to her.

This is another one of her quilts.  Isn't this so bright and beautiful.  It has a soft minky back.

This was crocheted by Trish.  She is fairly new to our group and we are enjoying getting to know her.  I love that our group is so welcoming and we get to know new people periodically.  

This is also Trish's.  She says it is a yarn eater.  You use a lot of yarn.  I think it will be warm when it is done.  She has a ways to go.

I think this was also Trish's.  Her grandmother made this.  She left Trish a bunch of blocks that she had started.  Trish is going to finish them.  Our Quilt Walk Retreat will be having a teacher teach this method.  If you are interested you will need to register right away.  quiltwalk.org  That is the second weekend in June.  We also have a quilt show.  I hang the quilts so please don't forget to bring those too.

Ace Hardware in Cedar City

I am sure you don't think of a hardware store as the place to get fabric.  This store has a good selection.  They also have a rewards program.  One lady had bought enough fabric that she had quite the reward certificate.  I was impressed.

This is a darling pillow.  I may have shown you one of these before from guild.  It is cute.

This is a runner.

They had a few different aprons around the fabric area.

This is my brave girl that was shopping with me because she was waiting to get a spacer put in her mouth.  We had to kill some time before the appliance was ready.

Zoey loved the Olaf quilt.  This was tied with a chenille yarn.

That is a birthday table runner.

I really thought this star quilt was impressive.  It is beautiful.

This is a Quilt of Valor sample.  They had a good selection of this type of fabric.

I love Bertie's Year.  This is darling.  They have a great selection of those flannels that look warm like wool.

This is another of those long pillows but for Christmas.

This store does have a good selection.  I was able to get some 118 inch wide fabric for a back for 40% off.  I was really pleased.  It is nice not to have to piece backs.  I am sure I will have left overs too.
