We had a finishing off day. Bev found the book "Quilts on the Double" by Judy Hooworth & Margaret Ralfe. It is full good idea & wonderful patterns. The pattern we picked to make was "Beach Brollies"
The top photo is the second quilt "Beach Brollies Tails" that you make from this pattern. The idea is two quilts from the one lot of fabric & cutting. No waist. This quilt still needs to be pieced together.
Sorry my photos are mixed up (it's way too hard to fix, I am having lots of trouble with my computer lately.)
This quilt come from the book "Kaleidoscope the Smart Way" by Sharon Sebrow. The pattern name is "English Garden". Evol now has the fun of quilting it.
This is the first quilt "Beach Brollies" . Still needs to have the border put on.
Do you know what this is? Toadstools. I was out walking & beside the road there were all these big white balls. They looked really good, I just had to take a few photos. But I don't think you would want to touch them. Once they dry out they turn to dust.
This one would make a great quilt pattern.
Sewing at Peter Taylor's.
Shelly arrived with her "Cactus Flower" quilt. This pattern had the papers to make 3 table runners but Shelly was after a quilt so she put them all together. You can also purchase this pattern as a quilt but we didn't have it in stock at the time, that's why Shelly joined the runners. Looks great though.The Block class is moving along. We are only up to month 2 and they have made 6 blocks already. I think I will have to throw in a few more difficult blocks.
This is just a few of the blocks from class.
We have started our 2nd Judy Niemeyer pattern. This time it is "Stepping Stones"
The photo below is of Bonnies blocks for the quilt.
Next month we will start the "Bali Bed Runner" This quilt or runner has the Wedding ring block with points / stars were the rings join. It is a stunning quilt.
Megan and I are off to Mum's for Easter. Going to be a bit of a family get together with Aunts, Uncles, cousins, and more. Mum sure will have a house full.
I better say bye for now so I can go and pack.
