We were really blessed to have Claudia Crump show us value differences, this month. She said that value or light, medium, and dark make a big difference in our quilts. She also talked to us about color and the color wheel. The design in this quilt would be totally different if there weren't such a difference in the values of the darks and lights.
Some of us made table toppers or table runners for people coming to dedicate the Cedar City Temple. I did get mine done but not in time to show it at guild. If you can come see our Temple. The open house is free and you would not believe how beautiful it is. The open house is from October 27th-November 18th except Sundays. For tickets look up templeopenhouse.lds.org.
Marie is going through her stash like gang busters. She has made something each month using her stash. She made 9 of these little see-through zipper bags.
Claudia made an everything bag too. She said that the next one she makes will be with bigger pockets.
This is showing the difference the value makes in making a pattern. If your fabric is too dark to be a light, turn it over and use the back as the front.
Angeli is showing her blocks from the block of the month blocks. She is getting them done even though she is behind.
LaRetta is an amazing quilter. This is her Utah quilt. The Sego Lilly's are the state flowers and the sea gull is the state bird. Utah is called the Bee Hive State. I am sure there is meaning in the blocks but I don't know them.
