Back to routine! Quilt Groups!

First, I want to say... "Well shock me silly!
I've received positive comments from 9 and 2 pending participants in my PhD Challenge!!" How exciting is that! I will have company in my 6 month commitment! Good stuff! Thanks for joining in ladies! 8-)
Anyone else want to play along, just go to my PhD Challenge post!

Sorry... a bit of a long post...

I am so darn glad that the festivities have past by for this past year, and that life is back to "normal" this week. Back to my quilt group gatherings and such. I missed my ladies! 8-)

Tuesday night my Country Rose gals got together. A few show and tells, and lots of chatter! Catching up on the last 4 weeks! You know... 8-)

First show and tell is a block- in- progress by a new quilter that joined us last night. Bs is fairly new to the quilting world. I think about a year or two... I'd say she is well on her way and hooked! A wonderful Teddy B! 8-)

I met B through a Pug Rescue Group/Chat line, and she expressed and interest in quilting. We discovered that we lived around the same small community at the time (2 years back), so I invited her to see my sewing room and projects. That one visit led her to take a few lessons, and now she's found our group and joined in! Welcome to the group B!!! 8-)

This quilt top is what Gk was able to put together over the holidays. Looks great G!!! I asked if I could have it but was turned down. Apparently she needs it on her bed when it is done! The nerve... lol! 8-)

This is our Jb's Christmas Wall-quilt that she is plugging away on! Friend Pg made one last year that we all fell in love with, so there is a few of us making them... I haven't started mine as of yet...
Looking good Jb! 8-)
Our Crescentwood Quilters group got together tonight. No show and tell, but plans were being made!
One of our wonderful ladies has been absent for quite a while with health problems, so one gal asked if we wanted to make her a comfort quilt... Well heck ya!!! 8-)
We are each making and contributing a 12+1/2 inch block in brights to go into it, complete with our siggies and words of encouragement...
We also discussed, my suggestion, to do a Row Robin together! I've seen many lovely ones out there and thought it would be fun! Will have to see if there is enough interest to make it a go... Just what I need during my Challenge, another project!!! lol! You know how it goes.... 8-)

I'm going to have to challenge myself to cut back on my computer time... BIG TIME!!! Not so funny... 8-(

Tomorrow, a home day, I hope to post photos of the projects I wish to finish for my PhD Challenge...

Happy stitchings!
