Special Christmas Gifts

 Mrs. Wisdom, a local teacher here- wanted to let the students in her class make a very special Christmas gift for their families this year.

The kiddos were able to come to Home Grown Quilts on a 'field trip', pick out fabric, and then went back to school to create their projects.

We were able to go to the school to see what they made, adorable wall hangings! Isn't that impressive?!  These 4th & 5th grade kids are amazingly talented.

What a wonderful teacher they have, and lucky families too.

Thanks for letting us be apart of this project, Mrs. Wisdom! We cherished every moment of being with your students.

June Cleaver Fashion Show

 This past year we had a June Cleaver Fashion Show -  along with a tea party to go with it.

Ohh my goodness, it was so much fun!! Everyone got to model some aprons, eat delicious treats, and giggle until our sides burst.

Below are some pictures of the fun:

Elayne Murphy, our Knitting Club Instructor, donated a beaded knit bag for the door prize for our June Cleaver Fashion Show. Deanne (shown above) is the winner of that bag- and she was visiting us all the way from Kansas!  Lucky!

It's a Wrap

Our friend Ann Wilponen came to visit us and was able to teach us how to make adorable fabric baskets with an 'It's a Wrap' pattern.

They were so fun!

Here are some pictures from our evening:

Boise Quilt Show

 Back in September (we're pretty behind on our posts)  we had the opportunity to show at the Boise Quilt Show!  Our booth is so much fun to set up.

I had a lovely Assistant- Ann Wilponen who demonstrated our Quick Ripper :)

Strata Star

One of our most popular classes is the Strata Star Table Topper class. It looks very complicated, but it is actually quite simple to accomplish.

Back in September I had the opportunity to join another quilt guild at their super amazing retreat in Newport, Washington and I was able to teach them how to do this table topper.

Didn't these ladies to a lovely job?!

Keep looking for this class in our newsletter. You'll LOVE making this project to have in your own home.
