I was absent that day

 I was unable to attend the September meeting, so I truly appreciate Alex for taking pictures for me.  It looks like I missed an awesome meeting!

So first is the show and tell of work from the members lucky enough to HAVE sewing time.  


Baseball panel quilt by Liz Scott

Another great panel quilt from Liz



Some bits and bobs Kathi Everett dyed, and a concertina book- shown below.




Stephanie Mott finished her block from the straight line quilting class!



Mary Beth Letson made this for the QCNYS "Wee Little Quilts" collection


Mary Beth finished this UFO from her mother's stash

A quilt in neutrals for Mary Beth's grandchild



Connie Grimsley showing off some Community Service quilts

Connie is still on a roll finishing UFOs

                                       
                                             Connie made this in a friend's favorite color

Connie made this for Community Service with the economy blocks they've been collecting

Connie bought a bag of blocks at the Perinton quilt show, and turned them into this

Connie said this UFO is of "Unknown Origin"  


Connie made this Spock quilt as a gift for Jenny- very logical.  (sorry, I had to) I added Connie's picture because she looks so pleased with it 
 


                                     Jenny Grimsley made this sweet dog quilt as a fundraiser

I wish I knew the story for this- the picture is labeled as an ode to Nancy Schrader's mom, Mickie



And we have our first finish from the "fusion" classes earlier in the year , by Sandy Shufelt


So, the program in September was mini trunk shows by several members.  I don't know what order they were in at the meeting, so I chose alphabetical.  There's too many to add names or descriptions (plus it was hard for Alex to get all the info and I don't want anyone to feel slighted).  Sorry.

First up is Mary Ellen Ames, who we all know loves more geometrical designs.












Next is Jean Butzer, who brought a wonderful selection of her work!





















                         
                          Next is Tracy Jachimowicz, whose work blends tradition and whimsy.










And lastly, Carolyn Stegman spoke about the surgical caps she makes for the Sawgrass center




Thanks to all of them for sharing their work, and to the members who helped by holding the quilts!

In October, we'll be enjoying our visit with Sheri Cifaldi Morrill, of Whole Circle Studio.  
REMINDER: the meeting will be held at the First Presbyterian Church on Main Street.  Information will be in the newsletter.
