Stitching News

 In no particular order:-

Rose has collected a good stash of wool fabrics over time, she loves working with wool and wool felt. This lovely applique, stitched to a Linen/cotton blend from Makower, will be made into a cushion, it's a pattern from a book by Piece O Cake designs, they are always cute!

Norma has half of her beautiful Batik quilt top finished already.  Each of the blocks measures 18" so they are pretty easy to make. Norma was going to take her time and make this next quilt slowly, that isn't happening! 

Fiona Too really likes making cushions and pillows. She sent this picture as proof of her finish. Wouldn't you love a pair of wellies like those?
It's a fabulous and finished pillow so, Toot toot toot 

Farmer Lynda is really enjoying making her Pirate themed gifting Quilt. 
All the units have a lot of detail, as you can see.

Here's the latest bit, a Treasure Chest, isn't fabulous! 
Lynda stayed up well in to the early hours to get it finished, 
How lovely to be enjoying a project so much.

Remember I told you Pam didn't want to start any more projects?
She's started making mini Churndash blocks, for a Churndash Quilt!

She's making a lovely Tea Pot project, in memory of a very good friend.
 Pam also purchased kits from the quilt show!!! ha ha ha 
Pam, I think Quilting is your drug of choice xx

In a very recent post I showed you the start of Christabelle's Hidden Wells project. 
These colours are very much like the real life fabrics
Lick-etty-Split there was a beautiful sandwich being made.
It doesn't look like the same fabrics, but I promise you it is the same project.
Chris quilted a lot of this gifting quilt yesterday.

It's a colour thing again, this project looks very pink here but it has plenty of greens and blues too. It's my "We didn't go on the retreat" quilt top, a work in progress. None of the applique is stitched yet, but it's all glued in place ready for the next retreat date, I hope they don't cancel this one!
