Runway show

Here's a post to show the completed tops plus today's show and tell.
 
In first place, we have Lynn's top which was made from a Caryl Breyer Fallert jelly roll.  Talk about luminosity--wow!
 
 
Here's Jan's top, made from a dots jelly roll Kathy gave her.  Love the geese!

 
Here's Susie's top.  It was made from a very cute set of prints in what is becoming one of my favorite color combinations.  Susie came in second place, by the way.

 
Here's Judy's top which was made as the beginnings of the backing for the friendship blocks we made for her.  She plans to take apart a few seams and add in some additional fabric to make it large enough for the backing.  She's always got a plan!


Here's Kathy's top which made us all want to have a beach getaway.  The photo is not crooked, the right side will get trimmed at some point.

Here's Syd's piece which started with a dog themed jelly roll that Kathy gifted to her.
 
 
Here's a closeup of some of the dogs plus the other fabrics Syd added.

 
Mary Ann made a top from the jelly roll she received as a prize last year.


Fran was trying to use up some neutrals and wound up with this very pretty top.  The photo does not do it justice.
 

Gwen made a top from some of the Halloween strips she collected from the Friendship group.  We just can't get enough Halloween. So cute!
 
 
How did Dianne get her accent squares so evenly distributed?  She must know the secret.


Here's my batik top which I wanted to read as beachy.
 

For show and tell, Gwen brought some of the storefronts she's been working on--starting with the Friendship blocks we all made. I can't wait to see this finished.  The details are stunning.


Here's a close up of the left side.

This section is in progress, also.
 
 
Gwen has so many strips, she's also been making lots of Halloween houses.  Here are a few.












When Dianne realized she would have to miss our February race date, she put together the jelly roll she had prepared.  Ruth, if you squint, you will notice this is quilted and bound.  We have another overachiever!
 
 
Here's a shot of the back, right before Sherman cozied up on top of the quilt.  I think that is his look of approval.


Lynn made a baby quilt--spontaneity!
 


All of the jelly roll tops were beautiful and interesting.  Show and tell was great, too!
