We had a fun meeting of the Tidewater Quilter's Guild last evening, with lots of planning for the year to come including our Spring Fling and Biannual quilt show. We enjoyed our program which had members sharing quilting in their family.
This quilt was finished by a guild member from blocks that had been given to her by her mom. Circa 1930 fabrics.
This blue and white Irish chain was made on a treadle circa 1930.
This quilt was pieced using fabrics that were scrap leftovers from a nearby pajama factory!
This quilt was pieced by Lakota Indians, a plains tribe whose tradition is to commemorate the death of a tribe member or friend with a star quilt.
This quilt was pieced from the member's grandmother's dresses.
This quilt was pieced using a coaster as a template for the applique and a treadle machine for the assembly.
This quilt was made around 1900 from "high end" dress good scraps as well as hat fabrics. It's tied, not quilted.
This quilt was made in 1860! Appliqued by the member's great grandmother.
This yo-yo quilt is 100 years old!! The fabrics are amazing!!!
It was so much fun to see everyone's treasures!!
