Quilts

30's fabrics are so cheerful! Kay Alvezi made this quilt from the book "Link to The Thirties" by Kay Connors and Karen Earlywine. Trish Wolski quilted it for her. It's beautiful!
Nancy Hastings and her granddaughter Susannah did a summer project together. They each made the same quilt from a Kaffe Fassett book. Here are the results:
Great job!!

Kids Classes

We're about half way through the kids classes and they are going well. The remaining classes are all filled up. Here's Abby, Katie, and Abby showing their headbands they made.
Abby is working on a quilt.
This was the July 14th 4 Patch Quilt Class. Everyone looks happy!
Here's another class, making something.
You'd think they were told to all wear pink! Like we always say, "Pink Happens"!

Tumbleweed Quilts, Rt. 6a, Barnstable

Laurie LaConte, professional longarm quilter, will be at the store to discuss your quilting needs. I will have samples of my work and pattern books to look at. If you would like to leave a quilt with me, I will quilt it for you and return it in early September. I have been longarm quilting for 9 years, I have a passion for quilts, and I will treat each quilt as if it were my own. Drop in to meet me and have any questions answered.

How do you like our flowers? Aren't they fun? The rolled fat quarter packs looked a bit like flower pots to us so we added flowers.
It brightened up a rainy day!

Quilts

Vi Olsen has her Aunt Bessie's old fabric. She made this quilt using it and is going to make more using the fabric for her children. They'll be able to cuddle under it and remember Aunt Bessie. That's nice!
Judy is making a Halloween quilt. It's coming along nicely. She picked out a border fabric.
Alice finished two stockings that she needlepointed. They are Fabulous!!

Carol is back on Fridays!

Carol is finally back on Fridays for the all day open sew classes. Yeah!! She has been missed!
First a knee operation, then a shoulder. Hopefully she'll take a break from becoming the bionic woman and stick around for awhile!
Here is the next two table runners for the classes on July 25 and August 1.
If you can't come to an open sew or other class, there's always the Grab And Go Kits available.
Everything you need, even scissors, is included in the kit. Great for travelers needing a project.
There's lots of choices of kits to choose from.
