Halloween meeting

We had a very spirited group for October.  Now that the Wildwood deadlines are behind us, let's see if I can remember what we did.
 
Judy was doing some very nice free motion quilting. 
 

Lynn did a thorough and informative demo of her die cutter. 
 

Mary Ann was binding.
 
 
Jan was cutting up several Marcia Derse FQs to make Fat Quarter Totes.  Here she is resisting the overthinking of the fabric combos.


Susie was working on this pattern.

 
Gwen was working on the embellishments for her store front quilts.  The photos don't do it justice but you can zoom to see all of the thoughtful and exquisite touches.








Lynn brought her in-progress braid challenge inspired by the Day of the Dead.

 
.... complete with sugar skulls on the back.
 

Lynn also brought her finished black and white challenge top.  It is a great piece.
 

Susie brought this cute Halloween braid, all layered up.  We can't get enough Halloween!
 

She even fussy cut the stripe on the back.  Cool!
 

Judy brought each of us a Chris-o-ween decoration.  Cute!
 

Judy also found time to make these Halloween inspired snacks, complete with licorice teeth.  These were the closest to dessert this month.  Next month, I plan to try this caramel apple rice pudding recipe ... before fall is gone for good.


MaryAnn made stuffed peppers.
 

There were spiders lurking in Jan's salad.
 

Gwen made pumpkin inspired deviled eggs.
 

Susie's eggs kept staring ...
 


There was lots of productive energy this month.  Hope to see you all in November.
