Hello Everyone,
The big room at Snowflake Lodge was buzzing with energy, laughter, and the unmistakable joy of creative souls gathered together. Quilters filled every corner, each one bringing their own spark to the space. Just look at this stunning example: Enchanted Autumn captures the essence of fall in every stitch. It was one of Debra’s first forays into appliqué—and it’s absolutely gorgeous. Her craftsmanship and attention to detail shine through in every leaf and block.
Valery took my original Country Sampler pattern—which featured nine blocks—and gave it a bold new twist we're affectionately calling Country Sampler on Steroids! She stitched each of the original blocks not once, but twice, then dove into the bonus blocks from the back of my Patchwork Math book to expand the design even further. The result? A stunning quilt that’s bursting with creativity, precision, and heart.
Barbara lovingly restored a quilt that holds deep family and historical significance—originally stitched by her grandmother in the 1930s while at Napa State Hospital. As she shared the heartfelt story behind the quilt, her words moved many in the room, drawing quiet tears and a deep sense of connection. It was a powerful reminder of how stitches can carry memory, resilience, and love across generations. I've always said that quilters write their name in cloth.
The Sew Sisters made Sylvia and honorary member!
Soon,
Lynn
