Greg’s Quilt by Tina
This lovely quilt was made with a machine quilt-as-you- technique in vertical strips which were then sashed and Tina made the clever decision to make the sashing scrappy; This is a technique we will be sharing with you but what a great quilt this turned out to be Tina.
Quick Quilt (and big!)
Pat decided to make her son a very large quilt but wanted something quick - so took inspiration from the stripey quick quilt workshop; she also added sashing to make the quilt even bigger!
What to Watch in February 2013
We start the month off with yet more inspiration from the Hope Quilters’Exhibition ; this is the final part of our wander round their exhibition with Sylvia Critcher acting as guide and hostess. We enjoy work that is complicated such as Baltimore just as much as the use of simple panels that we can all be tempted into purchasing when at a show! Sylvia's group also have a wide variety of talents making small items - just you see.
Granddaughter’s Memory Quilt
Lyn seems to be such a busy grandma. She says: Am just coming to the end of my Granddaughter's memory quilt...my daughter Ali couldn't bear to part with Izzy's old baby clothes so asked if I could do something to 'keep': all the sashings are from her dresses and I used the bibs and babygrows for the pictures. also stitched in the age labels on the tangled star pillow front....Lyn
A PATCHWORK OF PEOPLE
What is it all about?
Craft, Company, Community, Heritage and being creative.
But more than that. We are slowly working together to put together a set of 30 vintage quilt squares from 1933 found in a small town in Texas.
Each square has a hand embroidered signature and we are going to be creating a quilt out of the squares using techniques like hand stitching, sashing and embroidery.
