Table Topper Class was a huge hit!

These are just some of the Table Toppers that we made in the class and after the class.  Our group of over achievers are at it again, Dot made 5!!

Shirley is truly one of the greatest quilters in our group and she's done a blue thread, hand quilted whole cloth quilt.

She's also such a great quilter because she knows the value of labels for the legacy she is leaving her family.

Table Topper Class-lots of fun









So what does a successful class make? Is it a finished product? Probably 60 percent of the total is the finished product, whether it's at home later, or in the class. Or like our many over achievers in the room WE FINISH THE PROJECT BEFORE THE CLASS STARTS!. That's exactly what happened this time.

Loyce, one of our newer members gave such good information, before the actual class, that many had finished their table topper before the class began.

All our classes are choose to make a quilt or not. There is no arm twisting in the group. But, this was certainly a popular class and most all participated.

Besides the class, Pat and Ginger showed a fabric dying class they participated in over the weekend. They made beautiful tie dyed and suede like hand dyed fabric.

Another Day Trip for the Quilt Group

Once again we were on the road. This time with 11 in attendance. We went to Blackstone's Home Decor to see a Fleur di lis quilt show and shop. We ate at the Puerto Vallarta restaurant next door, then on to Happy Heart Quilt shop.
