Still waiting.......

Well we've  not seen too many of the stump work pieces finished yet - more UFOs perhaps! If you can't wait, this (right) is what it should look like. 

Anyway, this month we held another mini tutorial in machine trapunto with quite a few of the group members making a sample to finish off at home. Hopefully, were will be photos next month. Again, this is the sort of thing (left).

We also held another Saturday workshop - Denim Day - with everyone bringing old denim jeans and reinventing them into something else. There were quilts and bags in in progress.

This month's show and tell then.

Sarah's quilt, using scrap fabric, the courthouse steps block and her trademark hand embroidery.

Heather went to a workshop with Pat Archibald.
 Pat's iron caddy

 Pat's project bag, using all scraps. It has loads of very useful pockets.

Karen screen printed this panel when at school and dug it out of the loft to finish, trying her hand at FMQ.
