Oast Quilters' Show & Tell

 Kerry told us how a former teacher had told her students to only use a single line of fabric in their work otherwise impending disaster would ensue! (Who WAS this!!) Kerry's work takes another path  and I'm pleased to say none of the quilts in our Show & Tell conformed to this safe and somewhat boring approach.

However I do sew with several people who do take this approach and their work is always very nice and sometimes depending on the collection used impressive. My outcomes are more hit and miss but I continue to trust in the magic of patchwork.



Barbara has been finishing her tops
and this was a cenrepiece now rounded off.

Beautiful work by Barbara, a consummate needlewoman. Check out the tiny hexagons with the wedding rings and subtle basket colours.

Quilts. Above the right hand one is by
Marianne and they completed the donated flannel top which would make a wonderful wheelchair
blanket.
