One of the best parts of the guild meeting is always Show & Share.
A few years ago we ran a swap of half-square triangle blocks. Charlotte brought in the quilt she made from her collection.
Extras went on the back. Nice.
Our Program tonight was hands-on hand work. OMG, isn't that beautiful?
English Paper Piecing of Hexagons. I was excused because my arm is still in a cast.
Here is a panel all whip-stitched together.
Next, Madeline showed us how to make these. After stuffing with a piece of batting they are slip stitched closed and quilted.
Then you whip-stitch them together next time you're on a road trip.
What's coming up at the guild?
