Ada Hayden is participating in Stitcherie's Stitching Games this year.  The clue for April was bacon, so Ada had some work cut out for her to figure out how to interpret bacon in her stitching.

Summer Louise also lives on the West Coast.  Isn't her Amanda Lawford pillow amazing?!  Summer is also a professional finisher and quilter, so her sewing and color matching skills are shown off in this lovely summery piece.
