March and April.....

oops, not too many photos. It's not that people haven't been creating, just that I have either forgotten my camera or forgotten what I have done with the pics Kim has taken with her I-thing.  And my time at the computer has been taken up with gig lists and the like, and grandchildren etc.

Jane's quilt had to be unpicked owing to shrinking wadding.  Here she is preparing to start quilting again....

First stitch!

Excuse my feet.....the above photos are of quilts being made by Lesley and Libby.  They look so different with different colours.  This is a BOM from one of their other groups and they are doing Quilt as You Go, so when the quilt is finished, it is finished, no layering up and having to quilt it afterwards.  Quite a few people are doing this at the Breakaways now - it saves all the unwieldiness of a large quilt through a small harp.

Dawn's ice cream block from Jane's sampler; she has now finished this one and a much bettter pic can be found here http://danslespointsdesuture.wordpress.com/2012/04/22/ice-creams-on-a-rainy-day/

Jane is making a centre for somebody else's quilt - beach huts, sun, sand....hmmm, I sense a theme here.....

February's crop

Very remiss of me, I know but busy busy, lots of personal stuff I wont go into here but our lives have been somewhat turned upside down over the past few weeks. It will take a while to get back into the old rhythms, perhaps never.  Still, plenty going on at the Breakaways as you can see - wonder whether blogger will put 'em where they should be .......
