Mumbo Gumbo and a Worknight WIP

Here it is -- the wild and crazy Mumbo Gumbo quilt that so many of you contributed to!

The committee put together the string blocks pieced by guild members, and someone from the Needle and I in Rantoul quilted it for us. It's such a fun quilt -- thank you everyone for your efforts!

And here's a work-in-progress from last night's worknight at Sew Sassy.

Diane D designed this quilt with the help of Debbi D and Michelle G, and took it home to start on the layout -- you can see it's not done yet!. If you recognize the border, it's because it uses the extras (the quick corner remnants) from the zig zag blocks made by guild members. Waste not, want not! It's so exciting to see the creativity that quilters have when they just have bits and pieces to work with.
