I finally hosted my first quilting group since moving here, just like old times back in Gig Harbor. Meet the Material Girls, a mini group of the Tucson Quilters Guild who all live in Oro Valley. We meet twice a month in each others' homes to stitch, chat and eat, and today was my turn to host.
I fixed Caesar salad ...
... fruit kebabs
... and pasta chicken salad.
I forgot to get photos of the brownies!
But here's another dessert. My daughter's 35th birthday was yesterday and she sent a picture of the cake that Jade made for her. What a guy! Here she is with me at her 3rd birthday when I was about the same age as she is now.
And this is how the Grand Canyon quilt is evolving. I'm thinking of wind in the canyon, scattered light, energy. I haven't sewn anything down yet, but I'm pretty sure I'll go with this. I added snippets of fabric, yarn and feathers and I'll probably do swirling quilting lines.
Compare to the sunset from my front porch.
Have a colorful day
What a fun time! Looks like a great group! Yummy food! The Grand Canyon quilt is going to be absolutely beautiful!
