Rhona made this August quilt for her year of quilt wall hanging...The watermelon reminds me of going to my Pappy's cabin on the river...we always had iced down cold watermelon after running the trout lines in August..usually from a close by farmers garden...The home grown ones are so much better ....
The Cathedral pillows in the rocker are my August and October UFO's...I made them for my oldest daughter Missy...She was pleased with them..it is the closes she is going to get to a Cathedral quilt from her Mother the Ol'Blogger.
We are a group of women of different personalities and ages who blend together to make for an interesting and fun group. Our group is dedicated to creating art using various textiles and other mediums. Our interests include sewing, knitting, quilting, doll making, purse making, felting, beading, jewelry making, stained glass, glass blowing, glass fusing, mosaics, and altered books. We share our ideas and our time, to create items that are unusual, traditional and fun. Our fun meter is more important than our gas meter. We fill it at least once a month during our monthly meeting where we have show and tell to show projects we've completed, talk about new projects and share ideas. And the food!! As textile artists we are such lucky people. We find pleasure in simple things; the colors of hand-dyed fabrics, a spool of lustrous thread—we almost hyperventilate when we go through the door of a bead store! How fortunate we are to have passion to create and to achieve such satisfaction in what we do.
