Jan Magee taught us to make what she calls Gibbles and bits. I don't know where she got the name but it was an addictive way of making quilt squares. basically you start with an irregular size and shape fabric bit with 4 to 6 sides. You take a piece of a coordinating fabric and sew it to the first piece and so on, not caring about the dimensions of the strip that you sew on. Basically, you work your way around the block either clockwise or counter clockwise until it has grown to the desired size. the the block gets squared up and framed and trimmed again in a "wonky" fashion. The quilt pictured about is one done by Ann, who did hers with Christmas fabrics. Very cute!
Ann Ferris also shared with us her recently completed nine patch quilt.
Lillian Pitman has taken up her knitting needles in a big way and done some really nice stockings for her family.
Patsy Adams brought her new round the world quilt.
Great work everybody!
