Our September Bee Meeting

Robbie here… Our September bee meeting was held at my house.  A highlight of my month is getting together with this group.  I love these friends.

We always have show-n-tell of things we have been working on.  We have been very busy!  We had lunch and sewed in the afternoon.

Judy and Sally are sisters.  They picked a design and each constructed their quilt without sharing.  They didn’t see the other’s quilt until they were both done; how fun, right?  They revealed their quilts to us yesterday.  Aren’t they just TERRIFIC??  We LOVED them!

Linda is our resident redwork specialist and she quilts, too!  She she has a great eye for color and detail.  Linda made this fall table runner and wall hanging as gifts.  The recipients will consider themselves very fortunate!  They are just lovely!

I showed everyone the Amelie bag I made for show-n-tell.  Since I shared it on a previous blog post, I decided to post what I stitched at our get together.  It will be a gift for a new baby.  The second picture is a completed piece I did for another child a few years ago.  It’s so sweet, don’t you think?  I just love them!  (Maybe I’ll try selling them on Etsy.)

I also worked on a fall table runner, but I’ll share that later!
