Our first meeting after becoming "official" was held at Threadbear on Monday afternoon, July 1. Cool day here in Las Vegas after many days of HOT temps. Six of us showed up and spent the afternoon looking at projects, discussing things like dues and what project to do for the next meeting, etc. Some brought finished projects but most of us have "works in progress". A good time was had by all, I think, and we enjoyed having Bridget's sister-in-law join us with her darling adorable sweet King Charles spaniel, Lexi. Gee, no pictures of the dog. Darn. For our next meeting we are to bring any finished blocks from our first challenge - the Fat-Quarter-Blocks - and we'll put them on the design wall and figure out the best arrangement. That should prove interesting...more than one opinion I'm sure. Still have not decided what to do with that quilt once it's done but first it must be done. One of us needs a long-arm machine.....
Anyway, fun time. Next meeting is Monday, August 5th and we are to bring a finished pot-holder to exchange. A modern quilt block potholder....
Here are some pictures from the day and one project from a class with Michelle Watts that Linda and Ann went to last weekend:
