Brynwood Class Pineapple Show & Tell...

Brynwood Needleworks - Pineapple Class Projects

There's nothing quite as gratifying as teaching a technique and then watching your students run with it. Such was the case for me last night.

Last night was our monthly guild meeting for Disconnected Piecers Quilt Guild, and we always have a Show & Tell time. Prior to all the members with projects standing up to show their accomplishments, we asked all the gals who finished a project from the Pineapple Block class I taught to stand as a group.

I was so pleasantly surprised! They showed table runners - long and short - and Jamie has a quilt assembled! How much fun is that? (I can tell you from my perspective, a LOT!) Karen forgot to bring hers, so she stood in front, holding up a picture of hers on her cell phone. So cute!

 

They all did lovely jobs and said they're addicted to making the blocks. I can certainly understand that. So am I.

I'm heading to my aunt's in St. Cloud today. I'm staying with her so I'm only about a half hour away to go to Orlando on Thursday morning. She welcomed me with open arms when I suggested coming up for a visit the night before. I haven't seen her since my grandmother's (her mom's) 97th Birthday...five years ago. (Grandma passed in March, 2011.) 

 

We're both looking forward to the visit. I'll share more on my trip tomorrow.
