Show and tell - Common Threads Quilters October meeting

I love show and tell.  It is always fun to see what others are making.  


Barbara's  This was part of her class with Cindy Needham (hope that is spelled right).  Sorry the photo is blurry.  People just don't hold things still long enough. 

Another piece by Barbara

So sorry, I don't remember the quilters name. 

Hexie #2

I think this was Deolinda's quilt?  I have such a bad memory. 

Mary Ann's adapted from block of the month.  

Mary Ann's Fall Quilt.  I wonder if she will let me borrow it? 

Cheryl's Iron carrier.  She unfolded it to fast and I did not get a photo of it closed.  Sorry.  

Andrea showing her casserole carrier.  Sorry it is blurry.  She was too fast for my camera 

Not sure if this was Bernita's or Andrea's quilt.  It is just beautiful in person.  Love the colors. 

Bernita's birthday quilt for one of her sons. 

Sorry Kristin.  You were faster than I could focus in.  Sorry it is so blurry.  This was her Thimble Towne challenge. 

Mary Jane's apron made from her husbands pants.  Wonder what he is wearing now????

I missed a couple of photos.  Charlotte had her challenge quilt but all I got was a head in front of me so it did not turn out.  Sorry Charlotte.  And I think I missed one other.  Sorry there also.

Hope you all enjoy the photos.  It is so much fun to see what others are making.

Thanks for stopping by.

More Photos of Sharon's Quilts



Strip Club - September

This is another hexagon quilt.  We all started with the same black and white then added our own accent colors and background colors.

This is the quilt I made.  It is just the top.  I have to finish it now. 

This is Brenda's

This is Marty's 

This is Diane's

This is our Christmas Quilt we will be making.  I will probably make mine into three Table runners and not a quilt.  That way I can have three different gifts ready for Christmas.

Thanks for dropping by.  Have a great day.  

More Photos from Sharon's Trunk Show

This piece if made using the piece-la-kay (I do not know how it is really spelled but this is the way it sounds) method. 

Close up of the back .  

I wish you could see the edge of this quilt.  It is braid.  Just beautiful.  Her show quilts take between 3000 and 5000 hours to make. 

I just wish you could see some of this stitching up close.  The quilting is just beautiful.  

This quilt is all done by hand.  Again, I wish you could see it up close.  The workmanship is just beautiful. 

The gold on the left is lame.  The stitching is out of this world.  



I wish you could see the edges of this quilt.  So totally different.  Too cool. 

Sorry, these next two are foggy.  I kept getting bumped.  But you can still get the idea what the quilts look like. 


Well, That is all for now.  Hope you enjoy all the quilts. 

thanks for dropping by. 
Sharon Schamber Trunk Show was held at Thimble Towne Friday night.  I really enjoyed it and thought I would share some of the photos with you.  Sorry about the heads in the photos.  It was really had to take photos.
The middle is had painted.  This piece was so beautiful
This shows some of the detail.

One of her first practice pieces.  And this was done on a longarm machine.  I still can't do most of this on a regular domestic machine. 


This was embroidery on a long arm.  All I can say is WowQ

If only you could see some of this up close you could see the detail.  Unbelievable.

I will try to load some more photos soon.  Company arrived.

Thanks for dropping by.
