Quitling Bee

In my upcoming show "Strumpets and Squares" I am introducing some quilted wall hangings. I am a frustrated seamstress. I go to sit down and sew and end up with a horrible bobbin jam or a big chunk of fabric gets stuck and I end up putting a big hole in it. I am also too much of a "free spirit" to do major detailed sewing. Measure twice cut once!
I have an altered ART friend Joanie who is a master quilter! How blessed am I. She can whip a project into shape in no time. I had an idea of how it should all go together but really no clue as what I should use or how to go about it. I am sooooooo thankful for her help.

Shaun came by with Ashie (Im sure I spelled her name wrong) she is a big SWEETIE. Shaun is sweet too.



In progress.


One of Joanies whippets. They are so good.
I understand why Quilting Bee's happen. We are hoping to create more together in the future. Many thanks to my Freinds!

Thanks for your comment Jenny! Looks like you guys had a blast! I've been sewing more too, but just little bitty things :).
