THE FUTURE IS SO BRIGHT WE NEED TO WEAR SHADES

 The Happy Scrappers met Saturday at the Attic Window Quilt Shop.  Above, Adrienne wears sunglasses.  She said that she had to put sunglasses on because the sun was glinting off a car outside and streaming through the window and hitting her right in the face.  Guess that is a problem when you have the luxury of these big beautiful windows that give you wonderful light to sew in.
I don't know if it was really the sun or these bright colors that caused Adrienne to need glasses.  I love what she is doing.  I think she said the pattern is Joseph's Coat.  You can get it here.

 Lee Anne showed us her latest finish.  This beautiful large triple Irish chain quilt is ready to go to the quilter.
 Janalee said I couldn't take a picture of her quilt because it wasn't completed yet.  So I got a picture of her working on this lovely quilt.  I don't know the pattern as it is from a BOM that she is taking elsewhere.
 Above is an unusual picture of Rosa.  She is seriously studing the project she worked on that day.  She is making a cover for a friend's dog kennel.
 Judy F.  made this block.  Judy is making the same quilt as Janalee but is using different fabrics.

 Nancy has been busy over the past month working on this quilt.  The pattern is Entwined and she took the class from Vickie S.
This is a closer look at Nancy's stunning quilt.  I think she said she used a Jelly Roll.
