MORE Show and Tell!!  

September 2005

Polly's been a busy lady!!!

 
This tulip wallhanging I started for my Mom who loved orange. After she passed away, I gave it to a friend to finish and keep. She finished it and another friend quilted it and they gave it back to me for Christmas.  I have such wonderful friends.

This bowtie table runner is one of the first projects I ever made. My friend, Gloria, saw it and offered to finish it for me.     It's now finished and waiting until my dining table doesn't have fabric all over it.

 

 

My friend, Karla, made this quilt. I'm binding it for her so "I helped".  It was a kit that she bought last year in Houston.  Her son loves it and it will go to him as soon as I get through binding it.


 

This is a one patch class I will be teaching for kids at the local quilt shop here. Very easy and quick and instant gratification.

 

This Christmas lap quilt is one from a class I taught several years ago. I finished it off for my student with the "perfect" batiks, and it will be finished for Christmas this year.

 

This pinwheel baby quilt out of Aunt Graces is a sample for a class I'm teaching.  It's a beginner class and is quickly made.


Smoky's been stitching the summer away - between soccer games!!!.  Actually, these table centers were done quickly in May so that sisters and mom could each receive one when I got to the coast to visit mom.  The three sisters all met up on the plane in Calgary - from Edmonton and Regina.  We had a great visit - mom, dad and sisters!

 

Bert finished a challenge this summer too!!

My daytime guild handed out four small pieces of fabric for a challenge.  I have been in "scrap mode" lately, so I put on my thinking cap. I didn't want to do a table runner or wall hanging since these (although lovely) are not my usual choice of fabrics.  Then I remember an old baby toy called a Clutch Ball.  I looked  up a free pattern on the internet and voila!
