Stitching News

 
Rose is thoroughly enjoying playing with her Arty-Farty-Please-My-Very-Own-Self projects. Yes, just in case you are wondering? That is a real method!  Basically there will be one little wall hanging quilt for each season. They are still works in progress so we can watch them evolve.


Sue has chosen to do a few simple quilting lines on this table runner. That is enough to stabilize everything so she has been able to get her binding stitched on. After the hand stitching, Sue will go back to do more quilting, there might even be a bit of Big Stich hand quilting, one never knows with Sue.


This splendid quilt was made by Jean Bean. She had a picture of a quilt to inspire her but no pattern so we had to figure it out.  It's amazing what you can do with piece of paper, a ruler and a pencil... this is proof! The brief was 'No Tiny Bits'! there are lots of big bits here so that worked well. A stunning gifting quilt. There's no binding, did you notice? Jean has faced this quilt... that was a learning curve well worth conquering!!! Toot toot toot Beano, a Fabulous and Finish, just in the nick of time! toot toot toot. Happy New Quilt Andrew!!!
