Connie in Quilting

Whew, another secret project has been delivered.  It was quite a process, but we did get it done.  We used to be a group of 8 quilters.  Every Monday, we would come to my house (I actually didn't have to come because I live here) and work on our projects.  I'd make a pot of tea and sometimes someone would bring goodies.  We'd chat, drink tea, and stitch on our projects.  Then, Cheryl moved away.  I'm a little embarrassed to admit that it was well over a year ago.  So, since we are quilters, we decided to make her a quilt.

We each made a block using  Mickey Depre's "Garden Whimsy" as a guide and personalized the blocks a bit.  This is my block.  I'm balancing on the flowers in my garden with teacups in my hand.

Here is Sandy, napping in her hammock.  Can you tell that she has recently retired?

 

Betty was working on a Grandmother's Flower Garden quilt.  She paper pieced a zillion hexagons on Monday nights.

Kim made busy bees flitting around from place to place.  I think it's becasue she is always on the move.  Sometimes I just can't keep up with that girl.  One pair of sunglasses fell off a bee, but don't worry, I found them and they will be reunited with their bee soon.

Hmmmmm, this is turning into a long post with lots of pictures.   Look for the rest of the blocks tomorrow.
