Sew Day color


I hosted Sew Day on Sunday, always a colorful event. Let's start with breakfast. We gave up on serving full breakfasts, so now it's just a little something like pastry and fruit. I found an almond kringle at Trader Joe's and grabbed it because they go quickly and I adore anything with almond paste. It was delicious.


Then Linda J. unfurled her show and tell, a bed-size quilt top for her granddaughter who just got married. Fabulous, and so many points to match!



Not part of show and tell, but I spotted a woman wearing this sweatshirt at Starbucks last week and asked to take a photo:


Then we got down to work. This cute little tree wool appliqué was Linda P.'s project:


Carolynn worked on a poinsettia wool applique:


Linda J. had a wool applique flowered table mat:


Nancy worked on a sashiko octopus!


And I started quilting the baby quilt for my friend's granddaughter:



Then we had lunch, which was white chicken chili with veggies, more fruit and chocolate mocha cookies.



 And I'm leaving you an invaluable piece of dietary advice:


 Have a colorful day
