Quilt group

Yesterday was the Monday meeting of the Bellarine Quilters, we had some wonderful show and tell.

Pat made this from a Ricky Tims pattern and said it was very challenging.



Love the Aussie birds in the square blocks.


Lynda made this for family in Ireland.

Sorry for the photo quality, Maria made this as the row by row challenge, but changed it around a bit. The quilt has a Christmas theme and her Mum helped with the sewing. Maria's Mum is 90.

Sue made this wonderful quilt for her hubby last Christmas, he chose the fabric!

and the back. 

I spent Sunday afternoon sewing together backings and cutting wadding for four quilts, a big bag of happiness!! They have now gone to Joan of Faraway quilting to be quilted.

And this bag of goodness resulted from lots of cutting Saturday and Sunday, a quilt top all cut and ready to sew next week when I am on retreat.
Happy stitching.

  9. I love them all. What fun to belong to a group. I don’t anymore and I miss the comraderie. I’m esp. drawn to the car quilt. My SILs grandfather embroidered a shoebox full of antique cars. This would be a great layout for them.

  11. I always like the sharing of the quilts in your group. Everyone is doing something different, and it must be even more inspiring in person.
