She did a great job! Thanks for sharing!

Here's a look at Mary B.'s Tuesday Club 2011 Connect Four quilt. Mary changed the layout a little and we think it looks great! Thanks for bringing it in, Mary!

Doris M. created this striking wall hanging for her sister. It was a real labor of love, but we think it came out great!

So, come to an embroidery class and what do you get? Some pretty nice show 'n tell while your embroidery machine hums away! Joan M. (below left) and Donna G. (below right) hold up their latest creations and Nancy L. (left) displays her adorable snowman!

Another Tuesday Club 2010 passes the finish line and this one's a real winner! Jean Z. is all smiles as she shows off her quilt. Her choice of a pale green background and a more controlled color selection makes this version of the 2010 Tuesday Club quilt a real standout!

Gerrie F. brought in her latest creation to share with us and we're glad she did! It's just our our cup of tea!

Karen B. poses next to her Sparkle Christmas tree wall hanging from Sarah Vedeler's Sparkle CD. A beautiful holiday keepsake!

Another one done! Jean Z. started her Glorified Nine-Patch in a class and just put the finishing touches on it. Looks great!

Malayna J. shows off outfits made for her by her grandma, Jean Z.! Jean used Maywood's 13 Going on 30 fabrics for Malayna's tiered ruffled skirt and Lakehouse's Flowers Allover for her Easter dress. Very styling!

Here's a sweet baby girl quilt made by Angela L. Angela used pink and white fabrics to frame machine embroidered floral hearts and Sunbonnet Sue blocks. Beautiful work, thanks for sharing!

Nancy L. Bali Star

Nancy L. brought in this absolutely gorgeous bed runner she created with Hoffman Bali Pops and Judy Neimeyer's Bali Bed Runner pattern. Really wonderful work!

That's Christina L. smiling in back of her Watermelon Log Cabin quilt. Looks good enough to eat! Thanks for the show 'n tell, Christina!

Here's a quilt that is a true labor of love! Carol K. hand painted the fish blocks and the center block showing her son in his boat, embroidered the outer border with fishing tackle and hand quilted the entire top. To top it all off, it's Carol's FIRST QUILT! We hope it's not her last because it's a real work of art! Thank you so much for sharing it with us, Carol.

Jean O. brought in her "bloomingly" beautiful quilt made from Timeless Treasures' In Bloom fabrics. A real spring touch to brighten up a rainy day! Keep up the great work Jean!

Here's one more version of the Tuesday Club 2010 quilt made by Sandy E. Sandy completed the quilt top while she was sitting out a New York winter in sunny Florida! Good to have you back up north Sandy and thanks for the show and tell!

Here's another beautiful version of Gerri Richard's Cool Cat Creations' Annabella Bag made by Mary S. Mary used Hoffman's Pink Lemonade Bali Pops to make this bright and sunny bag! Great job, Mary!

Chickie B. brought in her All That Glitters quilt for a little show and tell during Tuesday Club. Chickie used a Patchworks' Packet of 12 fat quarters to create the quilt top and a pretty cream with gold metallic for the star sashings. And it's all done in plenty of time for the holidays! Thanks for sharing, Chickie!

Lois D. made the Professional Tote using 13 Going On 30 fabrics from Maywood Studio and it's absolutely ADORABLE! She complemented her tote with matching accessories for her laptop and other necessities. LOVE IT!

Joan M. has got a brand new bag! Well, actually a few of them. She made all four bags and the wallet using Cool Cat Creations patterns by Gerri Richards and a Blue Hawaiian Hoffman Bali Pop. Pretty nice work!

Diane H. brought us her Embroidablock TNT from Hoopsisters for a little show and tell at the start of Embroidablock 2011Goose Tracks class. Diane stitched her TNT on the Janome MC350E in the 5" block size. It looks great!

Lois D's TNT

Lois D. also brought her Embroidablock TNT in for all to see. Lois used her Janome MC11000SE to sew out the 8" blocks in gorgeous batiks. Absolutely beautiful!

Margaret M. brought in a quilt made almost completely from her stash. (She only had to add fabric for the dark stars and a few extra lights for the background.) Following a Fons & Porter pattern, she paper pieced the flying geese and tackled Y-seams for the stars. The end result is most definitely worth the effort! Thanks for sharing, Margaret!

Remember our Snowmen of the Month BOTM from last year? Well, Diane H. put her snow people together in one quilt instead of individual wall hangings and we think it's pretty cute!

And the winner is...
Joan M. for being the first to come in with a completed Tuesday Club 2010 Twisted Traditional quilt! (Well, the top is done and that good enough for us.) It's absolutely beautiful!

Karen B. came in a close second with her completed Tuesday Club 2010 quilt top! Karen used sunny yellows and blues to create her quilt. Thanks for sharing!

Nancy L. came in just before Christmas to show us her newest Christmas quilt. She followed a pattern from McCall's Quilting and reoriented the wreaths so the quilt could be used as a wall hanging above the couch. We loved it!

Isn't this beautiful? Sheila R. brought in her completed MarJen for Error quilt. She stepped out of her box to try brighter colors and we think the result is wonderful! Thanks for sharing, Sheila!

Joyce M. brought in this absolutely wonderful memory quilt she's making for her daughter Amanda to take to college. Theater playbills and tickets (that's the inner border!) were scanned and printed out and used to created this wonderful tribute to Amanda's love of theater. It's a true work of love! Thank you for bringing it in to share, Joyce.

Judy R. used seven panels to create this absolutely stunning One Block Wonder quilt. She left one panel complete and used the other six panels to make the kaleidoscope blocks. It's beautiful and we're so glad she brought it in for a show 'n tell!

Nancy L. brought in the quilt she made using Creative Grids' Double Strip 45° Ruler. She added a checkerboard border for an extra pop!

Arden G. (right), with a little help from her friend Margaret, displays the 2009 Tuesday Club quilt she titled "Big Sister Is Watching!" The diamond border really sets off the blocks. Thanks for sharing, Arden!

Here's a picture of "Rosebud, My Way" made by Kathy S. Kathy used Nu-Suede from Kaufman Fabrics for the outer triangles and it really gives the quilt a rich look. Beautiful work, Kathy!

Kathy E. brought in this sweet "pretty-in-pink-with-a-touch-of-green" Four-Patch and Pinwheels quilt she made for a friend. Very cute! Thanks for sharing, Kathy!

Jean Z. brought in her New York Beauty for us to oooh and ahhh over! A border stripe with mitered corners gives the illusion of a triple border. Very nice!

Well, Kim Y. was busy! Using Patchworks' Party Mix pattern and Patchworks' Packets, she made not one but two baby quilts. One for a gift and one just because she loved the fabrics! The quilt to the left was made using "Wind It Up" fabrics and below, "Itty Bitty Baby" fabric in the blue and brown colorway. And, for that extra touch, Kim added a small accent flange to each quilt. Very nice! Thanks for bringing them in!

Party Mix made with Itty Bitty Baby fabric.

Nancy L. stands behind her gorgeous sampler quilt. She bordered each block with a narrow black border, then a wider red border and repeated the pattern overall. The result is absolutely beautiful!

Ruth L. proudly displays the Baby Bunting she made with Marcus Fabrics' Itty Bitty Baby line in blues and browns. It's absolutely adorable! Thanks for sharing your work, Ruth!


What do you get when you combine new with traditional? A stunning Irish Chain quilt embellished with gorgeous embroidery! Originally seen in Creative Expressions Issue #6, our Irish Rose quilt was made back in 2005, but we thought this was the perfect time of year to bring it out! Embroidery is from Jenny Haskins' Rose Bud collection.

Norma P. proudly displays her gorgeous bargello quilt. Norma spent a lot of time choosing just the right fabrics and the effort really shows! Thanks for sharing!	Eileen H. brought in her Embroidablock wall hanging for us to see. She used red, white and blue with a touch of gold to achieve a nautical look. Beautiful work, Eileen!
Sandy E. shows off her 2009 Thimbleberries quilt done the Patchworks' way in absolutely beautiful batiks. She really did a wonderful job piecing and appliquéing her quilt. Nicely done, Sandy!
Anita B. brought in her double Irish Chain quilt so we could "ooo" and "ahhh" over the beautiful quilting (and the quilt, of course). The quilting was done by Patty Cline of Chestnut Bay Quilting.

Olive A. brought in four pillowcases for us to add to the 1 Million Pillowcase Challenge. We'll be collecting pillowcases to donate to local charities. For more information, go to www.allpeoplequilt.com/millionpillowcases. Thanks for your caring and donation, Olive.

Kathy C. sent us this picture of her Embroidablock Wall Hanging proudly displayed in her home. She used a beautiful combination of blues and greens to create her quilt. Beautiful job, Kathy!

This is a gorgeous red, black and white log cabin quilt made by Nancy L. It started off as a small wall hanging but took on a life of its own as it grew into a much larger piece. And some of those "logs" are really little! Gorgeous work, Nancy! Thanks for sharing with us.
Joan M. displays the Mo's Basket quilts she made for her granddaughters. Each girl came into the store and picked out her very own fabrics. They had very definite opinions and we think they did a great job!

We saw Kim Y.'s Glorified 9-Patch on display at the Peconic Quilt Show and asked her to bring it into the store
so we could "ooo" and "ahhh" over it! Kim made the quilt in Gloria's class here at Patchworks and did a beautiful job quilting it. Thanks so much for indulging us, Kim!
