Squares, cushions, tiny hexies, experiments and bugs........

Janet made this for her daughter 770-odd squares....it will be quilted on her longarm


We all liked this one.....

I believe this may have a cat companion in the not too distant future

A simple idea which came alive with the red sashing and border

Jackie is going to use these as cornerstones for her big hexies - it will be a gorgeous quilt


Jane's new idea - Janet quilted a few lines and Jane is experimenting by filling the shapes with fabric

Sheila's bug quilt - so cute!

Lesley and the haircut; Jane's cushion cover

Lesley is a hairdresser and here she is giving a haircut to Jane's little crocheted creation....



Cute, eh?  thanks, Lesley!

Jane made a cushion cover.  We loved the closure...

the front

and the back undone so you can see the lining.

Hexies, hearts, stars and a bag......

A lovely cushion - might be Steph's?

Jackie's hexagons





Sarah's bag

Norma's star

Chris's starry top for one of her grandchildren


another memory lapse - can't remember whose this great hearts and squares quilt is - Janet, possibly?

Janet's quilts

Janet has a longarm machine now and has been getting to grips with pantographs. This baby quilt was one





Can't remember the name of this quilt but it is a snowball block and a 9 patch which make up the design.  It is handquilted


This one is a Hunter's Star quilt made with half square triangles.  The original blocks are a little more complex  using diamonds but this is a slightly easier way of doing it.  http://www.cascadequilts.com/2011/02/hunter-star-tutorial.html  is one tutorial....

Christmas stars

Chris

Janet along with a few others





Bit misleading but it is Kim's star though Norma is in the photo





Steph's star



Disco time..

with the lights out - fab, eh?
