Please share your stories and creations with us!!!  If there is a special project that you are proud of send us a picture of the quilt...and you, along with little about what made this sew unique!  We LOVE to share!!!!!

Here is our dear friend/employee, Kay Appel with the quilt our shop staff made to comfort her during her walk through the battlefield of breast cancer.  The pattern is one from Rita's new book (still in process).  God Bless You, Kay!!!  You are our hero!

I bought the larger size kit from Creations Sew Clever.  The quilt was quilted by Michele at Mason Jar Quilt Shop in Beavercreek.  I then donated the quilt to the Greene County Food and Fish pantry and raffled it off for them.  All proceeds went directly to them.  (the cost of the quilt was donated)  I raised $1350.  ~Sandy Oh!

 Mandy's Leaves                                            Mariner's Compass       

 Dorothy Cox recently brought in two of her beautiful quilts to share with us!  On the right is Mandy's Leaves named after her granddaughter. This quilt is simply stunning!!! The Mariner's Compass quilt on the right is a shining example of dedication and true talent (see below for a close-up of the quilting)!  Both of these pieces were hand quilted by Dorothy who will soon celebrate her 92nd birthday! And, Dorothy, we apologize if we actually drooled a little on either of your quilts! They are magnificent! ;)

                                                                 

Unfortunately, this picture doesn't do justice to what Dorothy has done here.  She echo quilted around these feathers...what an amazingly beautiful quilt!!
