The Last Works of a Wonderful Quilter and Guild Member

The recent loss of our fellow quilter, Judy C., has left a hole in our Guild.   Not only did Judy share her beautiful work with us, she also gave us her time as our librarian.  

Today, I received the following email and pics from her friend, Jennifer G.

"Here are two of Judy’s quilts that she had worked on just before she died. The blue/turquoise one is her Pineapple quilt. I think it looks like lanterns floating in a night sky, but Judy insisted that it be called “Pineapple”!

The other is a Blooming Nine Patch. It is rather mesmerizing to look at and see how the patches evolve from the center. 

Judy had an excellent eye for both patterns and fabrics! 

On the Blooming Nine Patch, Judy had put the binding on, and I did the hand sewing. It took Amy, Judy’s daughter,  and me about 30 minutes to find the fabric for the Pineapple quilt binding, which I then made and sewed on. Fun times!"



Lovely work by a lovely lady.  Thank you to Jennifer for forwarding these.
