At the May meeting Penny Marble, of The Stitchery in Alden- or Darien, depending on who you ask!- shared some tips on how to maintain your sewing machine. ( I apologize that I didn't take any pictures of er presentation)
But first we had a bit of show and tell to enjoy!
Terry McGuire shared this. which I think will be part of a group project at the Tupper lake show tis summer.
Terry also shared this beautiful wall hanging. She fell in love with the owl panel!
Stephanie Mott shared that she finished the first appliqué block from the classes with Sheri Cifaldi-Morrill last October. Stephanie plans to make more of the blocks to make a larger quilt.
Chris Kuehl dug this project out to show while Penny was here, since she started it in a class with Penny "several" years ago.
Bev Noody Has been enjoying sewing things with clothesline rope (above and below). Several people thought she should make more snowmen to sell in the boutique.
Barb Sage made a Nice bag to take on day trips (maybe?) I got a closer picture of it- and the zipper pouch she was teaching after the meeting. (below)
And that's all. I'm hoping that we'll be seeing many more finished projects as the quilt show gets closer! Everyone is welcomed- and encouraged!- to enter your work!! Entry forms will be in the June newsletter!
Please visit Penny at the Stitchery for all your sewing machine maintenance needs. She needs your help to keep her tech off the streets. 😁
In June we'll be enjoying a visit with our long time friend, Linda Hunter, talking about using pre-cuts. Linda is also teaching her X block class. Don't miss it!!!
