While at Stitches, Alice took a class where she made this beaded bracelet. I'm sorry this is not such a clear picture. You really can't see the detail in it.

Christina spun and knitted this wool for these leg warmers.

We now have two completed afghans from our squares. We have several more just about finished.

Denise is working on a piece of embroidery for a class she is taking. The design is of her own making.

Here is Janis demonstrating her card weaving loom.

Janis spent her quiet moments on her boat this summer making lanyards on a card weaving loom. She is going to put some of these on display at the library in January.

A more detailed view of Alice's shawl.

Alice has worked diligently on this shawl for several months to have it ready to model at Stitches which she did at the beginning of November. It is a candle flame stitch. It turned out just beautiful.

Carole is currently working on this quilt. She brought several books about hankies with her. We learned that every state has a hankie. Carole has a hankie from her home state which at one showed the location of the town that Carole is from. Of course that is the spot that has become worn out. She also buys hankies on line. She showed us a picture of an Elvis hanky that was selling on e-bay for $400.00!! Thank you Carole for sharing your beautiful quilts with us.

Carole brought two of her beautiful hanky quilts made from hankies from the 40's and 50's. This quilt was made from hankies that came from the estate of J.H. Forbes who was from right here on Collings Ave. in Collingswood. Carole bought the hankies from an antique store in Haddonfield. The hankies are sewn together by hand. They are backed by muslin and batting. Then they are finished off with a back piece just like a regular quilt. One of the neat thing about these hankies was that folded inside of a number of them, Carole found cards saying who Mrs. Forbes had received that hankie from. The hankies in this quilt are probably from the 1950's. This was determined by their size. The smaller hankies are usually from the 194o's.
