Kims Striped Cushions

On Monday 19th I put the finishing touches to

Kim's cushions. She wanted ones to match her

newly decorated Living Room and using the

off cuts from her cream textured curtains.

I delivered these on the Wednesday when I went to

the last Card Making session of the year

@The Gallery.

Kim was very pleased with them.

Knit Wits Class, Cushions

Students are really enjoying making cushions now and

I love the variety of colour and fabric combinations.

Gallery Tuesday 27th July 2011

part of Textile Tuesday @ The Gallery is finishing work and

sharing the achievement.

Brenda can only do her textile work @ The Gallery

due to her busy life schedule.

As some of you may know she has finished many articles

which have been very beautiful and

this week she finished a Knitting Needle Case Roll and

a Needle Case to match in strip patchwork.

As they are a gift she made them in all shades of purple,

her friends favourite colour.

She gave her Grand Daughter her Pink Crazy Patchwork

cushion at the weekend as it was her Birthday and she was

thrilled. Brenda is now making her daughter a cushion

in browns. This is the start and the embellishments

are to be added.

Well done Brenda. It is so good to be able to share

our creations.

Pink Crazy Patchwork Cushion

Well done, Brenda for finishing this beautiful pink inspired

crazy patchwork cushion for your Grand Daughter.

I encourage finishing of projects. It gives you a boost

and sense of achievement, especially when you can share.

There is a lot of creativity sharing @ The Gallery,

I think because of it's great atmosphere.

This will only increase with moving to the new venue at

The Memorial Hall, this, renovation, to Art and Community Centre,

is coming on well and should be completed by November.

We are all looking forward to the new location.

I am involved in The Memorial Quilt which is

going to hang in the Hall.

Brenda Hand Sewing

As you may know if you follow my blog,

Brenda made a brown crazy work patchwork cushion before.

Her Daughter and Grand Daughter visited her at

the weekend and both saw her amazing cushion, on

the living room chair and both declared,

they wanted one! Could Brenda make them!

Brenda is making them both one and you can see

she has started with her Grand Daughter's first.

All shades of pink and glitz.

The machine embroidery stitches done,

the hand embellishing begins, with

sequins, french knots and sisha mirrors.
