October Meeting, outdoors

 We were back in Hamlin Park, despite the weather.  Lydia took a video of the hail storm that preceding her arrival.

It was cold and wet so business was mostly limited to Show & Tell.

Hope showed us a location-themed quilt she made for her daughter in Hawaii.  Even the backing has a surfing theme.

For a more locally appropriate project, she showed us the charming mittens she made.

Lydia made a bunch of cosmetic bags as bridesmaid gifts. As a timely bonus she made matching spring-closing mask bags.

Lydia also had a donation quilt.

 

Leslie went a little wild with a Bonnie Hunter pattern on her scraps.  

This bed-sized quilt is double-sided (check the upper left corner) and for her own use.

She had blocks left over, and left over, and more left over.  

4 donation quilts later, she still has blocks left over!

Sandra brought a Queen.  And the backing is rows of cute pumpkins.
