Show and Tell

After visiting the Festival of Quilts at the NEC in Birmingham and I think that the most colourful purchase was made by Bridget.

This is a beautiful piece of hand painted silk that she will be making into a couple of scrumptious scarves.

 We have all had a very busy week and so were quite happy to sit and chat for a good part of the afternoon.
Angie has progressed (a bit too far) with her first pair of socks and has got ahead of teacher Jo

she's so proud!

 Pam was busy tracing out the shapes to make another block in her
Be Attitudes quilt

 Therese was adding some treasures bits from her Mum to a little pouch she is making for her Kindle

 Remember that Mrs Beal was making a Slice and Splice quilt for our community table? Well, all the blocks are complete and ready to put together

I see she has sliced some more times too

 Maureen has embarked on a piece of lace for a garter for her grandson's Fiancée.  
26" is required.
The wedding is in two weeks!!!!!
 This may end up around the poor girls ankle!

Di had completed a rather nice cushion

 And was cutting out shapes to make another appliquéd one

 That will be like on that Sue had already done

 Our Chris ( her of the video tutorial promise) has leapt ahead and made a bunch of lovely purses for our sales table.

Ellen is back on form and is making some cute peg reindeer

 Shirley is adding the final beads to her smocked piece that will become a Christmas bauble

Here we have a wonderful Sun Bonnet Sue from Pat

Through the Seasons

 This has been a labour of love and she has even made a block to add to the back.

 Well done Pat!

We have the stiffener at group so all you will need is fabric, threads , and a piece of card to cut out your templates.
