Do you remember a few weeks back we were given a challenge to make New York Beauties, its here if you need a reminder. Lesley had made a start
New York Beauties |
I think there are 10 different designs that complete the challenge. I do believe we have fallen behind, but we just need another rainy day like Sunday and we will have them done in no time.
Lesley was finishing off some mug rugs
Angela was getting on with her little patchwork dress
Carol making an anniversary block
Ena making miniature carpets
Goodness what's going on here....testing the blade..... no, Betty is more sensible than that.
Jan's making a log cabin quilt
And Christmas blocks by the score (well, not quite a score, but quite a few)
And finally..... this is Ellen's sewing machine cover. This was started at our 'Back to Basic' days, and Ellen feels she has learnt a lot by playing along, and I feel congratulations are in order. Well done Ellen.
Cant believe that there are so many other Christmas projects going on! The NYB blocks are looking really good. Perhaps we should all have a go next year?
ReplyDeleteBy the way I love Ellen's sewing machine cover. I have heard it will be on display in her home (viewing by appointment) :)
ReplyDeleteIt looks like it was a really good day! I love Ena's mini carpets... they're 'magic' and the NYB blocks...what lovely points!!
ReplyDeleteEllen's machine cover is great and those NYB have given me a nudge to get on with mine. Great work everyone
ReplyDeleteIt is always amazing to see the variety of wonderful things being made from scraps of fabric and threads.
