From all the fabric I picked out last week I cut out diamonds. Small, medium and large. Then the fun started. Playing with them on the design wall. From the design wall to the sewing machine. After quite a few changes and a bit of unpicking this is the quilt I come up with. Still have a small boarder to add.
From all the fabric this is all I had left over. It is a wonderful feeling to use up a lot of old fabric from your stash.
On Tuesday night I went off to a lecture on colour by Kaffe. What a great night. Kaffe had so much to show and tell us. He has a wonderful way of putting colours together.
On Wednesday it was off to a class with Kaffe and Brandon to make the Shadow Pinwheel quilt from Kaffe's Quilt Grandeur book. I had the best day. Both Kaffe and Brandon are so clever with colour. I got lots of great tips and hints from this class.
Looking down the room at every ones work.
Looking back the other way. Every ones quilts colour story's were so different. It was good to see what each person come up with.
Brandon me and Kaffe.
After the colour lecture my friend Jan and I went out for tea at the Turkish Place. Once we walked in the door the place was full of colour and patterns. It all fit in so well with the lecture we had been too. Plus the food was delicious. Great end to the night.
