I want this soup in heaven

Wellllll ------
the quilt group blog blitz is coming I promise! It just got postponed a little since that lovely snowstorm made canning everything left in the garden a necessity.
And if any of you still have tomatoes left, I posted the link to Roasted Tomato Soup on my personal blog.
This is the tomato soup Donna showed our Relief Society how to make and I think should be served in Heaven.
I LOVE THIS STUFF!!!

Bring Out Your Inner Sherlock!

Join us for a Mystery Quilt Along at the Tuesday Club!!  
We will tell you the supplies you need and what to sew each month.  The pattern will be a mystery.  You will channel Agatha Christie as you try to find out what we're doing!  

This quilt works well with scraps as well as being a great leaders and enders quilt!

We are gathering supplies and starting our first step to be completed by the September Meeting. 

Supplies:  
*3 Charm packs (with a minimum of 40 charms each)
*3 1/2  yards in a solid. This will be for your blocks and the 1st 2" inside border. OR you can also use 3 Moda Bella Solid Charm Packs and get an additional *2/3 yard for the 1st inner border.
*Border 2 - 1 yard in print of choice

1st step:  From your solid fabric, cut 75 – 5” squares.  (approx. 10 strips of 5”) 
With one charm and one solid, make a triangle square.
……ooohhh such a mystery. Next step, next month!

Trunk Show by D and D




We loved the Trunk Show brought to us by Delene and Darlene and the many beautiful quilts they brought to share!
These are some of the quilts Darlene showed us. She has the funnest expressive personality and so much talent!





And Delene is super talented, too! We loved her idea for using shower curtain rings to hang small quilts. The clips hold the quilt and the rings can be slipped onto pegs or slipped over a rod to display the quilt! Genius!!








It was definitely "ALL BUBBLES!" 




 We loved it! Thank you Darlene and Delene!!!

Shop Hoppy


It may have been a bit blustery outside 
but that didn't stop the shop hoppers!
We had a fun little jaunt down to Pocatello 
and back to Ribbon Retreat in Shelley.
 


 Best free treat of the day!

 Um, this was pretty much Heidi's look the whole trip!
Love those clearance fabrics!!
Fun time was had by all!
~Thanks ladies~

Remember your rainbow blocks!

I just want to remind everyone you can still make rainbow blocks and bring them to the June meeting for the charity project!

I also wanted to share a couple rainbow projects I've seen online that I absolutely love!!!! These are both on my "wish list" to try someday!

First is this Bottled Rainbows Quilt-along from Stitched in Color.  You have to go to the links to see how the quilt blocks are made. It is adorable!!!!



The second rainbow quilt I really love is this one made from scraps on the A Quilt is Nice blog.
 So, so cute and colorful!
