The church where I sew regularly has a group of women who make quilts to gift away. I am going to share some pictures with you of all of this year's quilts. Those of use who sew every week have gifted fabric, quilt tops and even finished quilts.

Wings Of Hope Gifts
Every year my friend Patti and I make a little gift for breast cancer survivors. There is a soup supper where the women are honored.
This year we made jar openers. They are super simple but such a great gift as it's always nice to have a little help opening a jar.

Cheddar and Navy
I had some Cheddar and Navy fabric that I bought when Prairie Start Quilts was going out of business, so I have had this fabric in my stash for some time. I had 4 one yard pieces of fabric which worked out perfect for making a 3 yard quilt.
One of the pieces I have is a solid navy I will use for the binding. While on my bus trip, I found some fabric for the back. The pattern used is called "Porch Rails" and it's from this book:
There are a number of patterns I would like to make from this book. I may kit them up this winter. I like having a plan for some of the fabric I have purchased over the years.

Hello!
Hello! I'm back from an unscheduled absence. I had a busy time with Retreats and bus trips and train trips.
I started out in the middle of September with the first of my Retreats. Then I had another Retreat the following weekend. A bus trip the weekend after that and a train trip after the bus trip! It's been go, go, go. Lots of fun!

WOW!
WOW! I can't believe it's been so long since I posted. I have been sewing things, but nothing has reached the finished line. I do have a sampler quilt that I have one last month to work on.

Block 22
Here it is, Block 22!
It's hard to believe we are almost to the end. I think I found a setting that I like to use for these blocks. But I'm sure that there will be more settings to chose from, so will keep watching for those.
