The group has always been very impressive to me, and particularly at this time of the year. During the officer reports, I felt myself getting a little misty-eyed and emotional. Their community outreach efforts are truly extraordinary, and when the fireman came and spoke, he aptly summed up the effect of the group's extraordinary benevolence toward the community. The Northwest Quilters embody the holiday spirit, and they do it year-round.Bill Volckeninghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02212965199140126299noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-373996407183148608.post-12965894146271601982010-12-15T06:01:16.653-08:002010-12-15T06:01:16.653-08:00Bill, I'm sure it was wonderful!!

One of the quilters last night noticed both colors in the red areas, which is something I hadn't picked up on before. In the grid diamonds quilting, white thread was used in one direction, while red thread was used in the other direction. Interesting detail.Bill Volckeninghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02212965199140126299noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-373996407183148608.post-2038276960590905772010-12-14T11:23:54.293-08:002010-12-14T11:23:54.293-08:00Wish I could have been there, Sounds like you did ...Wish I could have been there, Sounds like you did a great job and everyone one was in festive mood with all the red and green quilts. <br />You have a lovely collection.Suehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14919240469331985688noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-373996407183148608.post-32437898640078848442010-12-14T11:05:17.588-08:002010-12-14T11:05:17.588-08:00I bet you did a great job.

Does the Sprigs of Laurel Medallion quilt have only white or red and white hand quilting thread?
