Two of the ladies were doing bindings. They took the class for these 2 quilts about 8 years ago. I have shown my flannel versions of it here and here.
It is my own original layout and I taught the class for over 10 years. Now I have more students wanting that class because they weren't quilting yet when I used to give the class.
Another student finished all of her blocks for the Turning Twenty Just got Better and got her layout of the blocks decided.
Another student had her blocks on the wall and I didn't get a picture, a blue and yellow Bento Box.
I helped another lady figure out how to put her 1250 nine patches in 3 sizes into 7 quilt tops.
Here is my latest visitor to the back yard that I have to identify. He walks like a dove or pigeon. I know this photo is blurry but he wouldn't stand still. I wanted to catch the iridescent color on the back of his neck in the sunlight.
After checking my bird books I guess it is a Rock Pigeon. I have only seen gray pigeons before but after reading about them, I know they come in several different colors now.
The books say they mate for life but this male has been here by himself 3 days in a row now. It also said they usually hang around in groups of 20. I hope he doesn't bring his 19 friends to my yard.
