The following items are projects I made at our Guild's annual retreat. The table runner and Thimbleberry Amish house still need quilting. Hope you enjoy.

I had a busy day organizing a sewing event for our charity project for the Missouri River Quilt Guild. We had 15 members come to donate their time and talents to make quilts for our local Veterans Hospital long term care facility. A local business was kind enough to let us use their conference center as a sweat shop. I want to share a few pictures of our busy day.

We have received some donations from local organazitions to help us with the cost for this project.

I have the perfect spot to display the berries and pot holders in my kitchen. I have a lot of red accents pieces in my kitchen, these will be a nice addition.
