February Guild and Sewing Room Tour Cont.

February's meeting was held at Rita's home.
 

We gathered at her kitchen table and in the center was a large Lazy Susan.  Perfect for displaying our 5" 'Aunt Gracie' type squares that we are exchanging this year!
 
This is Rita showing us a project that she had made with her penny squares.
 

Cute, cute!
 
In attendance was:  Susann, RaeAnn, Cindy;
 
 
 
Sue, Lynda, and Diana;
 
 
 
 
Rita, Janey, Jann, and we had a new member join us.



 
Joylyn arrived a little bit later so Cindy agreed to pose with her again.
 
 
While our president, Susann took us through this months schedule Rita treated us to some yummy muffins and her delicious homemade grape juice.
 
 

After business we had show and tell.
 
Sue shared this little mini wall hanging.
 
 
 

this darling scripture bag for one of her granddaughters.
 

 
and this cute spring time quilt she made out of fabric she already had.
 
 
Now it was time to tour Rita's sewing room.
 
Well, she doesn't have a room, but she has an amazing 'sewing closet'!
 
It's right in her kitchen.
 
She said that it worked perfect for her while home schooling her children.
 
 
Love this thread organizer!


 
Fun butterfly scissors and a sweet pincushion.

 
Look at all of those darling pins!  I think they are made out of clay.

 

 
My love for red has me a bit envious of this sweet sewing basket!!
 


And who doesn't love jars of buttons?

 
This heart pincushion is just precious!
 
 
There was another room just off of her kitchen that held her cutting table and had lots of shelves.
 

 
I know that these have nothing to do with sewing, other than most seamstresses are good cooks. lol!
 
but I just love old cook books!

 
Thanks Rita for the fun tour and the yummy refreshments!
 
Happy Quilting,
 
the Kennel Girls
