Stitching News

 Yet another catch up... I'm on a roll!

Pam is making space ship blocks for her gifting quilt. See the background fabric? It couldn't have been more perfect! The quilt will be quite large so will be used for many years to come. This particular block is about 12 inches wide and 24 inches long... it's easier to stitch large picture pieces.

Lyn came back determined to remember everything for her very own self about making this cushion, she did remember most things too so repetition does work. This Cat flavoured cushion will be gifted 

The zip on the back went top to bottom so as to keep the fabric design the right way up, I quite like it this way, note to self... try one this way up, ha! Toot toot toot Lyn, another fabulous and finished gifting cushion. (she's coming back for a 4th one, he he he)

Norma made great progress with her stitching at Sunday Sewday at Checkley, so only needed to stitch two more rows is this weeks' class... doesn't it look fabulous... even though Norma got all the labels confused, it is still fabulous and Norma is chuffed with it. Finished is better than 'perfect'.

I told you an Angie's Six Pack quilt was a quick project didn't I. Jan's already made her quilt sandwich aaaaand decided on her quilting design... there will be diagonal lines, arty fartsy ones! Watch this space.

After a fun day piecing Log Cabin Left Overs for an off-centre panel sliced through the backing, Bev was able to make her first ever large sandwich. We pondered a few quilting designs that will be stitched using her walking foot... I'm not sure which she chose but we will see very soon.
