The winner of our Opportunity Quilt was Gerald Gerving, the husband of member Cathy Gerving!

Congratulations!

                  

 That looks like the winning ticket in front of her!

Glenda's quilt... "A Star is Born."  She made this at a quilt retreat and her lucky sister gets it for her 80th Birthday!

The Bargello Flags are coming along nicely.  Below are 3 that Pat Byrd made.  She is gifting some of them to family members who are vets. 

In addition, she talked about a great quilt hanger that can be ordered online.  It is called a "Hang it Dang it."

Cathy Tuhy showed 2 flags, explaining that her 2nd one was better because she made larger cuts.  

Love those stars on the back!

Cathy made the shirt she is wearing in Susan Baffico's sewing class.

Lori's Star Quilt that she made for her bachelor friend who has never had a hand made quilt and happens to love orange.  

Deb showed her Aboriginal fabric quilt made with scrappy 8 blocks and alternating with plain blocks.  

Deb's Chick and Bunny Quilt with unique edging.

Deb's Jeep Quilt... "All Things Utah."

Audrey showing the snazzy Dr. shirt she made for her husband Tim to wear to the Seek Haven Ball.
