Lots of Finishes!

Starting with Carol's Sheepdog ( note - Sheepdog --- get it?) who is so cute. Carol is now on a mission to make a complete litter of these little beauties before Christmas. Have you see Carol's blog? You can find her here  just scroll down her page and see what she has been up to lately

Yes? Sheepdog!

 Christine has made a rather nice handbag in Faux leather

 And completed an appliqué quilt for her grandson

shame they aren't taller!

 And (does she do anything else???) a very pretty Sampler Quilt made "quilt as you go" which she says she does not really like!!

Just the binding to sew down

 I think that this is lovely, but maybe we shall have to find a good home for it?

So to Sue - She has finished a large and very colourful Disappearing Nine Patch using Kaffe Fasset fabrics

Fab Colours!

Sue has also finished a smaller and equally bright Batik quilt

 Bridget - Well - at last Bridget has completed her little Handbag needle case!  Well done Bridget!

Annette is busy paper piecing a bright quilt called "Windows into my World" a pattern designed by the lady who writes this blog. She has some great patterns on this site. Pop over an have a look.

this will end as a sphere

 Watch this space for her progress

 June has pieced some denim scraps and is now decorating this Crazy work

 Brenda is sewing some hexagons on a project that if I told you about, I may have to kill you. (its a secret challenge). We will see this project completed later

what do you think it will be?

 Barbara is working on a BIG Baltimore Bird style appliqué quilt. she was stitching a chicken, but was more keen to show her lovely Blackbirds and Strawberries

this will be superb

Kay is putting the Barn doors on to a "quiet book" though she wasn't working that quietly! 

cute appliqué and a little purchase?

 The pattern is Farmer Joe's Quiet book from Kids Quilts . It really is coming on nicely.

 We have a couple of Sun Bonnet Sue's  from Pauline and Pat

Pauline's

Pat's - one of the seasons

Eileen is also using appliqué to decorate a table cover for her kitchen 

posh cover for the kitchen

 Tuula is using some very bright colours . She had an idea from the last Exhibition, and we will see this progress.

On Wednesday and Next Monday (All Day)  we will be button making with Diana Turner.  We will be providing the Fimo Clay to share.  Requirements list have been given out.


Starting today its Give Away Day over at Sew Mama Sew . All you need to do is add a comment as per instructions and you may be a lucky winner of a handmade item or some supplies. Worth a try.

This is a great blog that has lots of sewing ideas, Tutorials and Sew Alongs. 

Jo & Lesley have joined in on one of the latest projects, a Mini Medallion

Not quite completed but these are their attempts

Someone is better at using the correct lighting with their camera! Lots of tiny pieces and the whole quilt measures 24" . Both need to be quilted and I will show them again then. Still time to join in if you dare!!!

I have been blessed with the new camera that I have been whining on about for the last couple of months. Still have to work out what all the buttons are for!
