Needles, Nibbles and Near-Misses

Hey quilting enthusiasts! The Inappropriate Quilters brought their A-game to this week's meetup, sharing everything from winter weather woes to exciting sewing projects on the horizon. The crew swapped stories about pets, discussed an upcoming July retreat, and explored creative ideas for decorating a 6-year-old's sewing machine with custom stickers. They dove deep into quilting techniques, with special mentions of Carolina Moore's templates and the joys of foundation paper piecing, while also supporting each other through personal updates including Patty's upcoming heart surgery.

The conversation took some wild turns when Leslie revealed she'd sewn through her finger with a Juki needle (ouch!) and kept it there for four days before removing it herself—talk about dedication to the craft! Rochelle couldn't contain her excitement about scoring an embellisher machine during a Black Friday sale, while they unpacked Day 4 of their mystery boxes featuring adorable cat and dog mug rugs. Between decluttering tips, football game stories, and heartwarming tales about Peyton Manning's airplane kindness, this episode proved once again that this quilting circle stitches together way more than just fabric!
