For this month's Sew-In, we had an incredible 12 members in attendance. (I know a few more members were going to take advantage of the weather by heading to the beach as well... I'm talking about you Cathy, Colleen and Dawn!! LOL) It was a good thing they got some beach time in, because the skies soon darkened and everyone was dodging thunder and lightening, along with buckets of rain!!
Meanwhile at the Sew-In, two of our newest members....
Monica was working on some of her CQA 52 Blocks/52 Weeks Quilt Along (QAL)...
She is so prepared. She has the pieces already cut and ready to go. She will catch up in no time!!
Lori was piecing these pretty "Quilty Stars" blocks. I Love these colours!!
Janet was working on this EPP project..
While contemplating her fabrics for her "Tula Pink's 100 Modern Blocks"
She also shared this beautiful table runner. It's almost finished....
Lucinda shared her fabric choices for a Necessary Clutch Wallet she will be making. Love those teals!!
She was also hand quilting her "Blue Star table topper"
Leigh-Anne came ready to sew some postage stamp blocks. Her fabrics are stunning!!
Heather has been busy catching up, after some vacation time. She shared some of her Modern Sampler blocks.
Janice was making her Tri-Recs units for the Medley Medallion Quilt Along.
Here is one perfectly finished unit! She's ready for the meeting this month.
Velda has been in "Mini mode" of late. This gorgeous example is for the Black & White Mini challenge hosted by Amy Ellis of curatedquilts.com
Dianne was in Scrap Lover's Heaven, while working on her double wedding ring quilt.
Just look at this bin of scraps!!
Linda was playing with her Batiks... This lovely assortment will end up in a Maple Leaf quilt. I can't wait to see some of the blocks come together.
I have noticed that quite a few of our members are participating in Quilt Alongs.
52 Blocks/52 Weeks QAL, Medley Medallion QAL, and the Summer Sampler 2019 - just to name a few.
I'd love to hear about any fun QALs of which we may not be aware. Also, what are your thoughts about QALs? Lots of fun or too much pressure? Please feel free to leave a comment below, we'd love to hear from you!!
Don't forget we love having visitors!! If you happen to be on PEI this Summer reach out to us via email: peimqg@gmail.com or on IG @PEIMQG so we can fill you in on the details of our next meeting or Sew-In!!!
