High Heat And Humidity!

An unbearable wave of sticky humid weather has hit us here in New Hampshire. But the Tuesday Sunshine Club met with resolve to stick to our projects. Here's Mary cutting backing fabric.






Meb was working on a nice pile of blocks.


They are so pretty!


Bev K joined us after a long absence and had a beautiful quilt to show us.


Sue has been working on her strippie quilt and was pressing it.


Sarah got a good deal on these blocks at the Salvation Army and is wondering how to match the dark indigo to make  more of them.


The Friday Quilters at the Golden Gese Quilt Shop had a special guest visiting us from Illinois.  It was none other than Nann,  from "With Strings Attached"  blog.





Nann had hand work that was easy packing for her travels on the long drive east.





It was great to give Nann a hug in person!


The owner of the shop, Nancy Gesen,  had a special project that she shared with us now that it is finished. Wow, what a beauty!


Wool applique on top of cotton piecing makes this quilt a masterpiece.










Here's a close up to show you the details.


Sue was working on a pretty panel quilt.



We had fun and dreaded leaving the air conditioning at the end of the day!

Stay cool and happy quilting!

Oh, I am glad you had somewhere to go quilt in air conditioned comfort! And that is great fun that Nann dropped by!
Those blocks Sarah found are beautiful. If she hasn't already matched that dark navy, I would suggest trying Moda's line of solids (can't recall the name of them just now). I had to match a dark navy in a quilt a couple of years ago, and I know that is what worked for me.
Nancy's quilt is beautiful. I love that pattern.
