The third Saturday of the month saw all of us gather for another lovely day of stitching, talking and eating. Di was fresh off a plane, having just returned from Houston. She was full of stories and chat about her very busy days there. And it is so nice to have Clare joining us on Saturdays now. Her boys are rapidly growing up and the need for Clare's taxi service on the weekend is diminishing so there is more free time for sewing. Lucky us! There was lots of show and tell - Merri has been very busy. First up, another border has been added to the Beamish quilt. And there was lots of discussion about the next (and final) border from a size and colour perspective. This is going to be a gorgeous quilt when finished. And it didn't stop there! Back in 2010 the Sisters made the raffle quilt for Quilts in the Barn. We called it the Sister's Peony Quilt - are they peonies or lilies? Does it really matter! Anyway, Merri has nearly finished making her own version of this beautiful quilt, just the outer border to go. Clare brought out her now finished 19th century nine patch. I am not going to say how long this has been in the UFO pile. but just maybe the end product has been worth waiting for!! And Ann bowled us all over with her stunning clamshell quilt. This is just glorious to see in the flesh - so to speak. The clamshells (sorry Ann I cannot remember the exact number but know it is more than 1500) are full of colour and set off the aubergine background fabric and borders beautifully. And as you can tell from the photo - it is a big quilt! No-one was tall enough to hold it up high enough for me to get a full view of it so apologies for the poor photo. And last, but definitely not least, Deb's completed Phebe. Back from Helen Hayes who has yet again done an outstanding job on the quilting. What can I say about this quilt? I love it and need to stop drooling over Deb's quilt and get busy and make my own version. Hope you have enjoyed the show and tell as much as we all did, Until next time, Meghan
