It's Taken An Age

 to get this post uploaded!
Don't know if it's my computer or Blogger,  but it's really tricky getting the photos on here.
I might have to ask my Tech Support. (she won't be happy)
I have had trouble since they "upgraded' IPhoto - I don't know why they did this - it was working beautifully before......

Anyway.....

Lots going on again though there seems to be quite a bit of knitting that has sneaked into our sewing group.
Good job we don't expel members for bending the rules - (are there any rules?)
Angie is being tutored to make her first air of socks. She will be using a very short circular needle which should prove easier that knitting on 4 DPN's.
we shall see....
 Pam is appliquéing her EPP's down and this will become a cushion




 Muriel (who brought no produce in this week :(  ) is paper piecing the letters of her Grand Daughter's name and this will be added to her quilt. 


Shirley has a beaded project on the go. these are the petals that will make her flower


Chris has been very busy ( well that's what she told me to write) and is decorating some rustic hearts. 


 Pauline is adding some hexagons to her embroidered panels

 And Eileen is working on Baltimore style blocks for another quilt,

 Jo has completed a beautiful quilt for her bed.

it looks pale, but the colours are quite bright
 This started off as a whole cloth quilt that was a neither here or there as a size so she joined a class at her LQS and completed the blocks into panels, "Quilt As You Go " style and added them to the quilt. Then the borders the same way and now she has a beauty to grace her bed .
 The Whole-cloth was hand quilted but the rest was done by her machine.

 Glenys has made a bunch of cute purses for the sales table


 And Mrs Beal has made another selection of little things, again for the sales table
pot holders and tissue covers

 The box of sales table items is filling up nicely but we need lots more!

Don't forget that we have a big box of fabrics for you to use to make saleable items. The more the merrier.
