July 2012

Lesley's
Kept forgetting my camera and then I kept forgetting to upload photos.

Anyhow here is some of what our lovely group have achieved so far this month - and in no particular order, it would seem.....

This is Jane's. She made it once, the wadding shrank and completely wrecked it.  She wanted to put in the bin.  We thought otherwise and set to, unpicking it and eventually Jane finished the job.  It is the same top but the quilting is different and it is every bit as magnificent as the original.  Jane's sister is now the happy recipient of something she probably never expected to get, given the state it was in and I think Jane is relieved to have it finished and handed over.  It takes a lot to get through something like this and we are very proud of our friend :)









This belongs to Chris Joiner.   She did a course with Patricia McLaughlin and this is the quilt as you go finished result.  She is very modest about her achievements but it is fab! :)

I cant remember who made these - perhaps someone will enlighten me as memory has gone :(


Some of us helped Jane layer up this quilt which will go on her bed.  She wanted something quick and easy.

It is surprising there are any patches left.  We all found fabrics we liked in here.......

Lots of safety pins....

Christine's round robin.  She has been combined techniques as she didnt want it to be too big.  It looks far, far better than in this photo.


Some more to be added on later......
