Lock-in 2009

Yesterday, Sharon and I hosted our annual lock in mystery. I think everyone had a fun day of quilting. We had lots of show and tell, which is always fun to see!!!! Here’s this years quilt. We called it Kansas Crossroads. (Ironically, during the making of KANSAS Crossroads, we had tornados in the area, and the sirens were going off for people to take shelter.)

Anyway, this is mine. Which was pieced by my friend Doris. Her and her husband, John, came by for show and tell. That’s John helping hold up the quilt top. picture-5685

Here’s Sharons. She made the throw size quilt.picture-5687

I just finished putting all the pictures from the lock in on my webshots page. So if you’re interested in seeing past lock in quilts and the progress that some of the ladies made yesterday, you can find the pics at http://community.webshots.com/user/alwaysquilts in the lock in 2009 folder. I tried to get everyone with part of their blocks, to show the variety of fabrics and colors. That’s one of the fun things about the mystery, you get such a variety of colors. They always look great too!!! We had a lot of last years quilts for show and tell.

That’s it for now. I need to go finish putting my things away. I unloaded the car today, and carried everything downstairs, I just haven’t quite got it all back where it belongs.

Have a great day, and enjoy the pics if you choose to look at them.

    Thank you! It is a lot of fun. Everyone looks forward to having it each year. The ladies will start asking about it in the fall. We had 3 ladies this year, that had never made a quilt before.
