This is the show tell from our last meeting. My mother-in-law missed the meeting, so I took pictures to show her our show and tell. I thought it would be nice if I share with my blogging friends. Aren't they very talented group of ladies. I showed my Mr. &Mrs. Signs that I already shared in my last post.
The last picture is some gorgeous fall leaves! Isn't nature amazing!

Mr. And Mrs. Signs

We celebrated our 10th year anniversary this year, so I made Mr. & Mrs. Sign to put it in a frame. I am glad I made it.  I now have an excuse to go picture frame shopping.  I have to admit I love picture frames! :)

If you would like me to make you one contact me on my email:  zlatydd@gmail.com

They are $25 + shipping.  They are great wedding presents or Anniversary gift, or why not for Christmas. 

I also made one for a wedding gift for a couple to be married. Love the fall colors and that is the theme for the wedding. Did your wedding have a theme? Our was orange and green as our favorite colors.

Quilt for Very Dear Friend from Circle of Friends!

 BREAST CANCER, that is the scary diagnose that a member of our monthly Happy sewing club got.  I decided that naturally we should make a quilt. That is what we do! It's a way to show our love  and support for her. 
Judy was diagnosed with breast cancer in August and decided to organize our sewing group to make the quilt ASAP. Judy already had a lot of health problems this year, she was looking forward next year. She had a very painful back surgery, while recovering she had to go trough a kidney stone surgery, then she got bitten by a tick and had her leg swollen, walking with crotches  and got limes disease, and last she was diagnosed with breast cancer.  

This is a picture of most of the ladies that help with the quilt. 


Everyone made a block or more. Melissa donated the backing fabric. Eleanor donated fabric for the borders. Jean - my mother-in-law volunteer to piece it, add the border, piece the backing. She also did sew the binding by hand in one day! I quilted the quilt on my short arm machine. 

Judy was beyond surprised and overwhelmed by our gesture. She deserves to know her friends love her and appreciate her! We are all wrapped around her in a form of the quilt to help her go trough this! 


Bellow is the block that I made. Judy loves and raises chickens and also loves cats and dogs. 


  You can see the backing fabric here. This is a picture with the quilt on my machine. 


 More close ups of the quilt! 


I hope that the quilt helps Judy when she has hard times as she is getting ready to start her chemo treatment. We love you Judy!
