Happy day

Today I had a lovely day catching up with fellow quilters, we had a great chat and morning tea which for some of us extended into the afternoon as we had an unsewing Bee

The group has been given several quilts, sadly the quilting is not the best so we are unpicking it ready for quilting again.
Earlier in the morning we had show and tell of older quilts we had made
Great use of doilies here
It is lovely having a look at quilts we might not have seen for for a while.
After the ladies had gone home I had a call from Beth to go and relieve her for an hour or so, I had a great time playing with Finn
Still unpicking here but nearly ready for bed!
Happy stitching.

    Looks like a fun get together. I love seeing everyone’s quilts. Finn always looks like a content little boy.

    I could sit and sew with that amazing view of the water all day long, Sue. How lovely to meet up with your fellow quilters and spend time together even if the purpose was to unpick stitches on quilts. Beautiful quilts there. And, you were able to hang out with your adorable Finn for a couple of hours. It sounds like the perfect day to me.

    You quilters are incredible, not only creating masterpieces, but fixing other people's mistakes.
    Wonderful you can do it all together

    Unpicking quilting is probably a bit tedious...but all for a good cause.
    I recognise the fifth quilt - I made that so many years ago!
