Pink Number Quilt
There, as I promised, a pink version of the "Number Quilt".
I've made two of these, one with a triangle border (above) and one with
a stripey border. I will machine stipple quilt them.
It has been good to work with these pink range of fabrics.
A colour, I don't normally use in textiles especially of this type.
They will be for sale.
One on my website and one @ The Gallery.

Number Quilt
I have been demonstrating how to make a small quilts week by week since I
started at The Gallery over a year ago and as I finish one
someone falls in love with it and it goes to a new home.
I have made them in various colours and themes.
I have made two of these colourful "Number Quilts" and are
in the process of quilting one and putting the finishing touches to
the other.
These ones are definitely for boys with animals
and tractors on them.
I think I will then start some "pink" ones next!!!!

Bolliwood Turrets
Jeanette's been doing more work on her 3D "Bolliwood"
inspired piece and now it's down to assembling and
adding the embellishments.
The picture does'nt do justice to the work in each piece,

Cot Quilt
Sylvia's one of our new ladies and last week she made a
needlecase. Her first real 'go' at patchwork.
This week she mastered the Rotary Cutter by cutting out
all her squares and sewing them together for a cot quilt.
She's a lady on a mission as her new great grand child is due
in February and wants the quilt finished to hand it over
when they arrive. She does't know whether it's going
to be a boy or girl so has chosen vibrant colours to be on
the safe side!
I must say as well, Sylvia used up the fabrics
she had and some she had been given.
I love to do this and it is often more of a challenge.
Wow, Sylvia what a morning, you got so much done!

Kimono
Carols all fired up for more patchwork and Quilting
and is making a miniature Kimono, using my full size
version as inspiration.
Her fabrics are beautiful and vibrant.
The flying geese sections are going to be very tiny!
A good challenge!
