Show and Tell, new solids and Aurifil thread sets

Yesterday was a banner day for "Show and Tell".  

I love it when little ones bring in their finished work! They're so excited to show off their project and get their picture taken.  

Sisters Ryli and Katelynn stopped by yesterday. They've finished their wall hangings and wanted to share them with us!  They did a great job!  

Thanks Ryli and Katelynn for sharing with us.  Keep up the good work!

We also had regular size people for "Show and Tell" yesterday!!! 

This top was made by Jamie A.  It features some of the fishing themed fabric in the shop.  She used the "lures on white" to offset the rainbow trout fabric. 

Jamie is making this as a baby quilt for a  little girl whose grandfather is an avid fisherman.  Jamie decided to use a solid pink inner border and one of our new solids called "leaf" as the other border.  

She promised to bring it back after the borders are attached so we can see the finished project!  

What a great idea!  A fishing themed baby quilt!

can you see the lures and fish?  

Nadine H. and her granddaughter stopped by yesterday.  One thing lead to another and we started talking about "Quilts of Valor".  She mentioned she was making one for her son who is in the Marines and had appliqued the emblem in the center of his quilt.   

I asked her to bring it in so we could take pictures for the blog.  They came back a little later with four quilts Nadine has made for family members: her son's "Quilt of Valor", a rag quilt she made for her grandson and the quilts she made for her two granddaughters. Wow!

this quilt belongs to Nadine's granddaughter that came with her to the shop.  I didn't catch her name but she said the quilt is very warm!  I bet!  Made with a grandmother's love!
