February Quilt Group

Just received this morning from Tacoma friend, Marilyn and hubby Wayne our snowbirds...who enjoy square dancing and will be back in June....she is also involved in Fl with a lot of quilting and always has things to share with us. Thought our group would like to see plus other who check in periodically. KEEP SCROLLING FOR PICS OF TACOMA GROUP MEETING...
Today was another wonderful meeting of Tacoma Quilters. About 18-20 attended. We had a couple of demonstrations. One was Sue below teaching us freezer paper piecing....you can see her delight and a lot of felt the same using her technique. You can check out her blog. Here is a site you can see it demonstrated. It is called Twiddle tales store.

Rayna's quilt with all kinds of wild animals. A real Maine Quilt.
This is the Star candle mat using Thangles taught by Pam. She did an excellent job. Our goal is for each of us to have one done for the next meeting. Mine is already on the design wall waiting to sew.

Rainey made this huge king size quilt and intends to hand quilt. Beautiful!!

Here is another of her's...looks like and 'I spy' quilt.

Pam finished the top of her 'Morning Glory'. These are being made by several of us to display at State show in July as a chapter challenge.

Janet made this bear paw design. Very colorful!

Bev was the winner for the month of December blocks. Members made them and a name was drawn. We get these wonderful block and then have to decide how to set them. She did a great job.

Another Morning Star by our Pres. Barb.

This is one of a group of antique quilts that were going to be tossed out and they were salvaged by one of our members. Don't we love to get ahold of an old quilt and see how it was done

Well that is it for another meeting...Enjoy!!

I am working on several things and will post when I get them done...Until....
