meeting #2!

December 9th, 2009

On Monday we had another LA Mod Quilt Guild meeting, and this time we exchanged pot holders! It was so stinkin’ fun to see what came out of everybody’s head and hands. Here is mine, complete with ridiculously small quilting and hand attached binding. It is 7×7.

…. and because, you know, pot holders belong in trees….

Pat was the “lucky” recipient of mine! She is the oldest member of our crew, I think, and I love her to pieces! I think I will just bypass the formality next time and move right into calling her “Grandma Pat.” She seemed pretty happy about her new treasure and says she is hanging it up in her kitchen, wow wee! that is quiet the honor coming from such talent as Grandma Pat!

I received this fab oven-mit that I am pretty smitten over, but I can’t remember who made it, ooops! But I have already used it, and I LOVE it, so hopefully that makes up for my flakyness.

You can check out all our surprised faces and potholder yummyness over at the LAMQG flickr group.

Hey, Emily!
Well, I’m 95% sure I know who made your oven mitt…Jane Fitts.
I’m still a wee bit bitter that Pat got your potholder, but I do love the one I got from Jolene as well, so I guess I’ll have to let it go!
Looking forward to seeing you next time.

Yup! It was definitely Jane who made it! It, and the one you made, are both sooooo cute.

Tell me what you think, I love to hear from you!
