May 2022

Block lottos, donations, swaps, ideas oh my!! Another jam packed meeting full of great content and ideas for the future. Plans are currently in the works for a group picnic and swap, a new block lotto with a bonus block for a community outreach quilt, an art quilt mini challenge, and a committee formed for the Quilt Con community outreach project. Phew! I need a nap!!

June’s Around the Block in Lancaster quilt is finished!! She did some fabulous walking foot quilting on it.
One of our resident Tula Troops, Linda completed this amazing quilt
And Modern Handcraft’s Snowflake quilt made by Linda as well. What a beautiful back she made with all of the “bonus” cutoffs from the snowflake blocks 👏
Look at this beauty Elizabeth put together and that backing fabric she picked up right here at Old Spool Sewing!!
Another great quilt from Elizabeth!
Julia made Noodlehead’s Cresent Tote at our most recent sew-in and it looks great!
Expect to see more of the back of this jacket as Julia has been bitten by the Sashiko bug! And keep your eye open for more Sashiko classes at Old Spool Sewing Studio.
Sherre had three finished quilts to show us!
Brandy finished up the second of the wonky cross quilts that the group helped her make blocks for. She will be giving them to a family in Jackson who lost their home and pets in a fire.
Another one of Tulas Troop is Helen and she finished this most amazing quilt!!!
Just a few of Mary Janes creations including a block she made for a Canadian guild she’s a member of and that lovely blue and yellow quilt she threw together to include with our donation to a shop in Germany who’s collecting for displaced children from the Ukraine. Thank you for your generosity Mary Jane!
Laura put together yet another Looper quilt, fantastic!
Eileen finished her Beads quilt a pattern by Modern Handcraft.

Eileen made this Noodlehead Range Backpack, with fabrics she picked up at Old Spool as well as the pattern. It’s on display at the shop in case you’d like to make one too!

Last but certainly not least, our multi talented member, Pam, taught us fabric weaving as our monthly program. How cute is the fold over clutch she created with her weaved panel? Thank you Pam!
