tonight is our next meeting of the philadelphia modern quilt guild
we will be having a potholder swap at the meeting tonight... and each member that wants to participate is making 2 potholders and bringing them wrapped up so that it's a surprise what you end up with!

yayyy for productivity.
:)
oh man you were productive! That's really excited about the guild being on Quilt Out Loud!
I love the idea of a modern quilt guild!
It looks like you have been busy. All are great projects too.
Your potholders are so cute and they look like you put a lot of effort into them. That is so exciting for you to be on Quilt Out Loud.
Lovely potholders :)
I'll look forward to your taping in the Fall. Love the potholders! I had productive weekend too. All the blocks for two quilts done, one Christmas, one a baby gift. Now to cut the borders, put the tops together and off to a machine quilter.
Love the Hunky potholders AND the Hope Valley spiders Julie...lucky recipients!
Whoa you're quick with the July blocks! June hasnt even ended yet lol Beautiful!
Btw at work the other day, this man comes in repeating to himself, "Quilts and more, quilt with the circles on the front"... I was like "Ooh we have that! My friend made that quilt!" hahaha!
LOVE THE LOST reference!!!! And I agree but that would just make me love them more. Wish I was in your area so i could snatch them up. Humm no Tidewater Modern Guild yet but maybe someday.
I love your Dharma potholders! I may steal the idea for Christmas gifts.
Jealous of your MQG. I want one in my town, but I'd have to start it myself I think and I don't have the time rightnow. Someday...
productive week, give a cheer!
haha to the Dharma Initiative. That cracked me up, and I lost track of Lost a couple of years ago. (You know how when you missed the season finale it seems like you can't watch the new season, and then it just keeps going like that...)
Anyhoo, that spider web block in the charcoal and Hope Valley is awesome. I did that block in selvages, but every time I see it in whatever fabric, it looks great!
oh boy I hoep I get my blocks to you in time! I am viasiting my folks tomorow and will steal use of moms iron!! everythigns sewn just need to press and cut and sign!
Beautiful pot holders! It was so much fun tonight to do the swap. Good luck with you siggy swap sorting :) Christine
Cool potholders, logo and blocks! Super cool that you will be on Quilt Out Loud!! Can't wait to see it!
Love the Potholders! I also lov ethe spiderweb blocks... I need to make some of those.
PS. I am having a giveaway on my blog if you want to include me on the list on Wednesday :) http://jewelsarmcandy.blogspot.com

Your modern guild is AWESOME! I wish you lived a little closer so I could attend your guild!!!! :)
