A surprise quilt

I can finally post photos of a quilt I have been working on with my Crafty Ladies since November. Five very un-sneaky ladies managed to work together to sew an engagement quilt for Marj.
We met the day after Thanksgiving (when the bride-to-be was out of town) to finish the quilt top.
Several weeks ago we pieced the quilt back. Over the last few weeks a fantastic group effort was made to pin, quilt, and put the binding on the quilt in time for Marj's shower on Saturday morning.
It turns out that we were successful in our sneakiness! Marj was surprised and hadn't even been suspicious that we were up to something!
I think she liked it.

Jasper's kimono


Jasper obliged and modeled the kimono I made him from Weekend Sewing by Heather Ross.
My sister Lynn made this adorable Baby Surprise Sweater out of her hand spun yarn.
