Default Sisters sewing group

My sister who was disabled due to Lupus and our niece, who was more like a sister, and I would sew together every Wed. We had so much fun, and got some work done, some machine embr. and quilting. My sister passed away and my niece moved across the country. I really miss those Wed. groups!
Y'all have fun!

Last year we found a fabric that none of us would have purchased on our own. It became our Challenge fabric. We each bought a panel to design something with. Below are pictures of the original fabric, as well as a picture of the various projects. We are looking forward to choosing our challenge project for the next year.

We had such fun doing this. Let us know what your favorite project is.
