Quilt Show August 2010

Here are the pictures of our quilt show and some of the members

sorry about the poor quality. And I am not around as I was the one

taking the pictures.

Begining a new quilt

This is the first block of a new quilt that
I am doing. I have been collecting some
fabrics for it for sometime now. As you all
know the collecting takes time. hehehehe













This is what the block looks like when
all four sections are together.
It is from an American Quilt Mag
called Forest Wildflowers by
Deb Karasik and Janet Mednic
am not doing the quilt exactly
the same but will see where this one
takes me.

Blocks together!!

These blocks were a swap (2008) from my

Australian friends and it was great fun and

very interesting. I just love them all.

At last I have them joined and now for

the quilting and binding. At last!!!!!!!

More finishes!!!

I finished these two stitcheries from Willowberry designs today.
At last I have got time to just sit infront of the fire place and stitch.
It was great. I am now up to date with this bom and am hoping to
get another bom done tomorrow but dont think so as it has lots of
needleturn applique, which I just love to do.

Another finish!!!!

This is a peg bag

now completed.

Our local newspaper

This is a small column in our

local newspaper about our sewing

group.

Completed these!!!

This is a ice cream container cover
that I made. The pattern is in our
local craft magazine "Stitches"














Our sewing group "Potpourrie"
did the colorwheel in class today
and it was great fun working
with so much color and fabrics.
No its not me in the picture.

Completed!!!!

This is the bottom part of a creative project
that I have been working on for a long time
and just recently been motivated by another
member of our stitching group to get it done.
It took me 2 full days of stitching to finish but
love how it came out. I have moved out of my
box of stitching just neat little stitches and
did this one free style and very rough and loose.
















Another block for Under the Sea completed.

just because!!!

I belong to a sewing group which seems to have changed for the better.
Now I have been thinking heheheheh here we go again!!!! and also realized
that the group is as good as its leader or convenor is.
There was a stage that I did not feel all that welcome but since the
new very capable person has joined this group it seems to be growing.
I also feel that all of us have started to become great friends because of
the convenor encompasing all our personalities which is so different
except for the interest in stitching. That is what a group is all about
accepting all persons and accommodating their personalities.
Now I have completed this block for my pumkin wallhanging:
