Last night was the Annual Christmas Party for my VRQ Bee. We had snacks and swapped 6" strips, then Show and Tell of the projects we've made from the Ugly Fat Quarters we received last year. I was amazed at the variety and workmanship of the projects. (Mine was a pair of large strip pieced pot holders.) We will do the same thing next year, swapping the Ugly FQ in January. I've got several candidates, but only need to contribute two FQ. (What was I thinking when I bought those?! LOL)
The high light was the distribution, by drawing, of the BOM for the past twelve months. We do this at the December meeting instead of having a monthly drawing. I won the October Blocks. These were scrappy blocks in the Cog Wheels Pattern. That one was in the Kansas City Star 'back in the day.' I won ten blocks, each 12" finished. I plan to offer these to my QOV Bee. We can make a few more and put together a nice quilt.
We had fun ... but then a group of quilters is always fun! Pat in Virginia
