Tacoma Meeting - February 4, 2015

Tacoma Lake Quilters of Litchfield held their February meeting. Amazingly it did not snow but was a fairly nice day. A smaller group but always a lot of chatter about projects. So many are underway that sometimes you feel like you are in a spin zone trying to stay on top of them. The carpenter's star workshop was successful with finished tops this month. Also popular was a donated block of the month done in red and white with 20 participants. Ann W name was drawn. It was so popular that we decided to do green for March.
SHOW 'N TELL
Ann T. - 'Take Four' Place mats 
These were a workshop we did a few weeks ago 
using 4 fat quarters.

Her own design
 Ann also shared a couple of neat ideas.
1. Quilt Journal - each day she does something creative.
2. Quilt Inspiration Book - designs or pictures that
give her inspiration for a new project.
