The Quilt the kit makes!

Quilt to you Wilt!

Vandy's project

First off I would like to apologies for that lateness of this post, as I am having some camera trouble, but I was able to get a few picture!(More to follow) So Saturday night was our monthly sewing bee at the Cloth Castle called, Quilt to You Wilt.There was about 15 of us that night but it usually has around 30, after the store closes, we open up the store for the QTYW'ers and they take over! Its a great get together with friends and a chance to tackle that pile of UFO's (Unfinished objects). I tried paint sticks for the first time that night and I was hooked. In the pictures below you can see me and my cowerer Vandy using her new stencils and paint sticks! I used fer tree stencil on a old white shirt and i love the results.    

Pictures taken by my  friend Miriam the The Rogue Quilter

Block Swap!!

A sneak peek for Gemma!
For those of you who are not in a block swap group I highly recommend joining one! I just joined my first online block swap group( click on the button on the right for more info) and I was assigned a block swap partner by the sites moderator. We tell our partner what colors we like and tell them what block style we want as well as what we don't like, and they do the same for us. We keep the block secret from them until the revive it in the mail, but i could not resit giving a sneak peek,and because I was so excited I already finished my first block for my partner Gemma's who lives in Tarragona Spain, her blog is  El patchwork de Maro . I cant wait to send this off to her.
