Breakaways 24th February

Sorry for very late posting as another meeting is almost upon us.  Time is flying by and in very short supply , for my part.

 

Chris's Pyramids are growing first off, Chris’s pyramids are growing and looking miles better than they do in this pic – something to do with the colour in my camera I think.

Norma& her pyramids Norma’s pyramids are also coming along nicely.  Her colour scheme is less controlled than Chris’s but I really would not be able to make up my mind which I prefer – I am always open to bribery of course, especially if it involves wine or chocolate…….

Jane's latest Jane’s latest picture on her new machine.  I saw a pebbly beach, with groynes and dried sea foam etc but most others saw viaducts and bridges etc.  Anyway, I do like the pic and the buyer can make up his or her own mind.  I’ve just had a sewing machine serviced or it might have been me.

Lesley's pincushion needs stuffing Lesley’s pincushion is done except for the stuffing.  It is so weeny, but very nice :)

Libby's disappearing 9 patch Libby’s disappearing 9-patch which she brought along for someone to have a look at.  She brought her Stars quilt along to quilt by hand Libby handquilting her stars  and also all the blocks (which I missed seeing the week I was away) she has been doing with Patricia McLaughlin:- Libby - 1 Libby 2Libby 3 Libby 4Striking log cabin block  this log cabin is Lesley’s and the next is a sneaky pic of the block Pauline was makingPauline's blocks

To finish off - and I expect Lesley’s daughter in NZ has been impatiently waiting for this – Lesley’s Stars quilt :-Lesley's stars Lesley's stars - middle (middle section) Lesley's stars - border w piping (border with piping)Lesley's stars corners (corner treatment)Lesleys' quilting on the back and the quilting pattern as seen on the back.

 

As for myself, I am still putting half square triangles together and have a few more rows to do.  Then I’ll be able to see whether they will fit together and whether the pattern is correct……

Jane is a successful textile artist and these are for sale though my pics are not the most flattering, I am sure. We are lucky to have her in our group, and get previews as well LOL If you might be interested in buying one, email me and I'll pass your email on to her.
