Pluckley Quilt Show

This was in the foyer. What an interesting design.

 I went with friends to the Pluckley Quilt Show for the first time. It was a delightful way to spend a Saturday morning with various interesting and impressive quilts, useful traders and of course delicious homemade cake.

A complex quilt by Inger Milburn using the 52 piece Hill and Crag block.
I benefitted greatly from Inger's classes.

Quilt made by the late Margaret Harrison and for sale, I believe.

Backdated

 I have had quite a few issues with photos hence the paucity of posts, not of quilty activity. If I take them on my phone, so easy, I have to email them to self and download as Blogger uploading doesn't work on phones. My point and click was broken, now recently repaired. I've bought a new phone which will work underwater. 

So on retreat a week away I will take phone and point and click and try to be good about posting.

My nice fabrics

Speaking of being good I have taken out and sorted all my recent "nice" fabric collections which were all bundled in the cupboard. Now I have to bring myself to use them. . .

First Wednesday in September we had a small Chartham Hatch meeting, just four of us.

Maggie's

Sandra's work is so beautiful. This is a Jen Kingwell design.

And later in the week it was Bonnies. I'm very pleased Bonnie's has got going again though we are concerned about the health of our oldest member who nevertheless has made a very jolly great-grandchild quilt.

And Show and Tell at Oast was good as well:

I know this was Heather's

Jacquie's
