My first quilt/wall hanging by Lyn Waudby
My son David was getting married, and I decided to make something special to commemorate the wedding. The wedding was to take place in Disney World Florida followed by a celebration meal and last but not least watching the Magic Kingdom firework display lighting up The Castle. As this is Kerry's favourite Disney location I thought this might be a good place to start.
A 50th birthday present

Basket quilt helps student make her bed
This stunning quilt made by Jennie with the basket motives has so inspired her daughter that apparently the bed now gets made on a daily basis! I'm not surprised Jennie - I would love to look at this too - well done.

Revamping your jumper
Val: A member of my quilt group loves to take a booring jumper and revamp it with a bit of patchwork - and she's not afraid of just cutting bits off - as in the sleeves - or slicing it up the middle
Inspired by Justhands-on.tv
Pat made this lovely knitting bag as a result of purchsing the pattern from us - great job Pat.
Make Do & Mend
Broiderie Perse is a very posh way of using fabric to hide a stain! - lovely job though Jennie and no-one would ever know if you hadn't shared the secret.
