Those Mesa Ladies/ August

 A lovely day yesterday with

those cute Mesa Ladies.

They really are the nicest of people,

and I feel it's a privilege to 

meet with them each month.

One of my favorite parts is to see what everyone is working on.

 Stephanie (Stuph From Steph)

just finished her amazing Row Along Quilt 

designed by Lori Holt of Bee In My Bonnet.

I love Stephanie's version.

Such beautiful fabrics!

And do you notice how she combined her colors

around in the border?

Wonderful idea!

 When Steph and I both made these rows 

we worked from tutorials on Lori's blog.

The Row Along became so popular

Lori expanded the ideas and

has a new book coming out.

The ladies had  lots of 

Show and Tell this month.

 Peg made a String Quilt

using newspapers as her foundation

for the blocks.

  String Quilt

by Janet

 I fell in love with another quilt

Janet was working on.

 Paris by

Margot Languedoc of The Pattern Basket

 Each block has a cute gathered ruffle that 

is sewn down the center.

 I've been seeing Margot's name around a lot lately.

She is the designer of 

Strawberry Social

that so many are making right now.

(If I had the time, I would love to make this quilt!)

Each month one of the ladies brings lunch

for our group.  

Peg really out did herself!

Such an amazing cook!

Peg runs a catering business

Snaps Cookies and Catering

which I highly recommend if you live 

in the Phoenix Metro area.
