Design Floor Friday - October's Sew/Craft Friends-zy

Welcome to another edition of Design Floor Friday!!  Today, I'm here to share the projects and events of October's Sew/Craft Friends-zy.  Yes, I went.  Even though I just got back from Retreat a few days before!!  Hardcore quilter, here.  (I even try to plan my vacations around Quilt Bee meetings!)


Here are the photos and I will add verbiage, if time allows...

I arrived only moments before Denise:

The artist was already ensconced at his station:

Denise couldn't WAIT to share her nearly completed quilt:

Curved piecing wasn't as hard as she thought it would be:

Denise recently took an IMPROV class...

... And bought the book to go with it:

Lisa accidentally started a NEW project:

Denise got right to work on her next quilt:

The scrapbookers left their stuff and went of a field trip:

Volunteers worked on deconstructing plastic bag to be knit or crocheted into light weight Waterproof Sleeping Mats for the area's homeless population:

I brought a BROWN project for the Rainbow Scrap Challenge:

But first, I want to make progress on my Ella Donation.  My Pfaff needs to go for a Spa Day, which is why this quilt is being constructed on my Janome Jem Gold travel machine:

These are the fabric that Carol has chosen for her next collaborative quilt with Lisa:

Here is the inspiration quilt:

Row One has been assembled.  Keep up the good work, Denise:

The scrapbookers have returned:

Quilt Math???  Good luck with THAT, Lisa:

Warning!  Scrapbooking in progress:

Tiffany arrived and went right into Show and Tell mode...

First, her spectacularly finished Fair Quilt:

A really old UFO waiting for binding:

All of the fabrics in this quilt are stars:

Tiffany's recently made Carpenter's Star waiting for binding:

Hidden feather quilting:

Another recent make, Pecking Order, also waiting for binding:

One of the scrapbookers REALLY wants to be a quilter:

Carol worked on putting a pieced quilt back together:

Tiffany made and applied MILES of binding:

Patti made progress on her Canine Advent Trees:

Joy glued down fabric bit on Mis for Mosaic, thanks to Lisa's handy dandy Sewline Glue Pen:

Tiffany and piped binding number one:

Denise's new Star Quilt top, sans borders:

You can clearly see the artist's process:

Just LOOK at those rich colors:

Joy is happy to have all the little bits glued down:

Piped binding number one, done:

Tiffany's freshly finished Shakespeare in the Park:

Carol, I guess this is where the Design Floor title came from:

Lisa did some applique:

Tiffany prepares MORE binding:

First corner turned...

Tiffany is almost done with another quilt...

... Piped binding number two is DONE:

That means quilt number two is finished:

Carol is planning a special center of for this quilt back:

Someone got a new motorcycle:

Here's the lucky rider:

Denise added borders to her Star Quilt... 

Next up, quilting!  But first, a closer look...

... And a peek over the top of the quilt:

Denise likes the Recycled Denim Pin Cushion that I made:

Speaking of what I made... I have a nice stack of freshly pieced 4-Patches for my Ella Quilt:

Tiffany applies piped binding number three...

... While Denise stitches down more of the facing on her new Circle wall hanging:

Lisa asked for an opinion about her appliqued berries:

She was concerned about the spacing, but it looks good:

Tiffany's Pecking Order quilt is now completed.  If you are counting, that is finish number THREE for the day:

I'm not sure why she's hiding behind her quilt:

Carol completed some HSTs in two sizes for her new quilt:

All in all, it was a VERY good day.  Although, I must say, we did miss the folks that weren't able to be with us this month.  Hoping to see Britt and Lois in November.

Until next time...
Sit, STITCH, repeat!!!
