Sewing Day - Half Yard Challenge

We had Great fun at our Guild sewing Day, Saturday Oct 29, 2011.
Cherrie showed us a video from Fon's and Porter on doing a "Half Yard C'hallenge"
The tools we needed were the easy angle and the companion angle, 5 coordinating half yard cuts of fabric, other basic rotary cutting equipment and a design wall. (of course your sewing machine).

We didn't have a huge crowd at City Hall, but we had a nice crowd.  Plus lots of good snacks.  I will post pictures below.  Luella, Jackie, Sandy and Lorraine worked on other projects.  BettyJane  was going to do the project... but I didn't get any picks before she left...:(    Cherrie's sample was blue and brown, Liz did a halloween one, (I don't think I got the picture of that!  bummer)  Teri did a scooby doo fabric, Peggy purples.. Clare lime green, Judy - blues and browns; Diana - kind of harvest colors... ; Cherrie also did one in brights.  Megan (Cherrie's daughter) sewed a fun quilt together... her blocks were done... I hope I got that picture...  Anyway... We sewed until 7 and cleaned up and were out of there by 7:30..pm  It was a great day, If your weren't there... you missed the fun.  It was a fun project to work on and see how everyone came up with new ideas.
