Those Mesa Ladies/ January

 My favorite day of the month

a day to sew

with those wonderful

Mesa Ladies

Several in the group

were making projects from

Lori Holt's book

Quilty Fun

 Such a great book

that can be found 

HERE

 I know Lori would be pleased to see so many in our

group sewing her designs :)

 Christine is new to our group.

She brought the cutest little bag

that held her sewing supplies.
*Pattern: Sew Together Bag

 The side handles are made from the zipper.

 And the inside was full of several little pockets

that helped organize her notions.

 It was Julie's month to provide lunch

and she put on the most beautiful

and delicious meal

 of chicken tortilla soup and avocado salad.

These ladies really spoil us!

 Stephanie brought her home made salsa

 And Peg, the dessert wizard,

created a new cookie recipe

that was probably the best cookie I have ever tasted.

Julie gave each one of us a Valentine,

and candy hearts.

I don't think I've received these in years,

and her gift brought back many childhood memories.

A day where we all felt very loved :)
