July's meeting

Hot enough for you? As it's a little cooler just now I, for one,  am feeling more comfortable and energetic enough to write the update for July. Will it last though?

As expected, our Sewing Bees made it into last week's Brentwood Gazette as the newspaper published a round-up of the Brentwood Arts Festival events.

This month, we moved on to our fourth mystery block, the Log Cabin block. With 17 people taking part in the challenge, that's a lot of folders, several of which are bulging already. 

As usual, we saw some lovely pieces at show-and-tell:
Karen's bead embroidered bag
Elaine's bag #1
 
Gill's quilt in progress






Elaine's bag #2
Wendy's crazy patchwork & embroidery
Maria's cushion

Heather's quilt-in-progress

Lesley's bag
Tina's bag


Tina's quilt
Tina's purse

For next month, we've decided on a bring-and-buy as we've all got crafty bits and pieces that are surplus to requirements for one reason or another. Hopefully, they'll be just what someone else is looking for!
