It is now finished and she left it at

Beryl's Embellishment

Beryl had her first session @ The Gallery and

she made some embellished felt. This is a really

good piece and she is going to make a needlecase

out of it and some cards.

Beryl had also brought with her some of her

fabric stash and we had a look through and gave her some

inspiration.

She decided she would like to make a quilt for

her new Grandson.

Sylvia making a Patchwork Tablecloth

Sylvia was inspired by the Grand Mother's Fan Patchwork and

Lace Tablecloth I had brought in to show her for inspiration.

She wanted to know what she could do with all her

handmade lace and linens she had inherited from her

mother.

Dereham's Lace Making Group meets on a Monday,

where Sylvia is a member.

So as you can see, she has set to work

and is making her own version of the cloth.

Well done Sylvia for doing so much

homework!

website on my Vintage page

Pats Samplers

Pat has been sorting out the boxes that came down from the loft

and she found two Samplers she made when she was about

the age of ten. They were to celebrate the Coronation.

They were lovely to see and share.

Thank you Pat.

Classes are lovely for this, 'The Show and Tell',

element. It always enriches all who shares.

Drum Carder

At the Weeting Quilters Meeting Diane who is also a

spinner and weaver brought in a car load of fleece,

some washed and some ready to prepare and

has let me borrow her spare drum carder.

This will make such a difference from hand carding.

I will have to get Stewart carding as he did such a good

job at carding at the Alpaca Farm.
