What a fun tradition to get together like that 
And I like the idea of a challenge fabric. Everyone did a really great job, however, the pillow just jumped out and said "take me home" shall I send you my address

All of your projects are very beautiful. Can your long lost brother come and join you for some inspiration? I will go by a flannel granny night gown.

Wish I could get my sisters to quilt!! We get together every year...October this year at sister #2's house. We always have fun, but quilting would be a blast! I enjoy fishing, too, but my youngest sister is afraid of the water!

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!
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.

[ATTACH=CONFIG]360591[/ATTACH]Sister No. 2 made a large quilt. Once again, beautifully done.
[ATTACH=CONFIG]360594[/ATTACH]Sister No. 3 made this lovely pillow. I Love this one.
[ATTACH=CONFIG]360600[/ATTACH]Sister No. 4 made this smaller lap/nap quilt. Neat design.
Sister (in Law) 5 didn't get any pictures in for this post.

It's great that you get together and spend time sewing and "sewcializing". All the projects turned out wonderful and you are all super creative!
