Recently we met at my (Cindy's) house, and it was Peggy's birthday month. She had requested poetry-themed creations from us. This elegant piece is an embellished handkerchief, from Joanell. I didn't copy down the beautiful poem - maybe one of you can add it to the post.
(joanell's poem taken from the side of a building on her Wyoming trip : Put your ear to the sky and listen my darling, Everything whispers I Love You.)
I made this mini-quilt and called it "Cat Doggerel." I figured Peggy needed another cat in her house. I stenciled words that rhyme with cat -and there's a sneaky rat on the left side.
Stacy made this beautiful green mini-quilt. She put one of her birds on it, as well as a poem. I hope someone will post the words to the poem here.

Vickie made a lovely cat mini-quilt. Lucky Peggy! I made an apple-cranberry pie for us to celebrate her birthday, and I regret that I didn't take a photo of it, and I also forgot to ask people if I should make coffee to go with it. Darn, I had my little coffee maker out and everything.
Vickie also brought a wonderful prayer flag for me, because she missed the August meeting. The theme is "Time 2 Shine." She used these cool rhinestones for the lettering that I hadn't seen before. Thanks, Vickie!
