Not much sewing....

but plenty of fabric and quilts, all the same!



I attended the Craft and Quilt Show in Melbourne 

today,

Machine quilted by Karen Terrens

mainly to see my friend Jenny's beautiful quilts, two 

of which were adorned with ribbons!


Her skill at rescuing old and worn quilts and 

re-making them is nothing short of magical!




Much of her piecing is done by hand too!

Machine quilted by Karen too

Another friend, Karen, was awarded a ribbon for this 

machine quilted piece....


What a stunning colour!


I was also impressed by this clamshell mini quilt...


20" square with each clamshell piece being 

no more than 1"!


I know I could never achieve anything like these but 

they are a wonder to see and marvel over!

I did do some stash enhancement at my favourite 

fabric discount shop, "Darn Cheap" fabrics, last week.



These will make great baby quilts,

don't you think? 

Happy days,

SUZ

✂︎✂︎✂︎ On A Whim...

This one has been finished for quite some time!



But has only these last few days made its first public 

appearance....



Before the binding...

As the name suggests, I started this on a whim....


and entered it in the show.... 

on a whim!


I had long admired this quilt, on the cover of a 

Quiltmania magazine.


I wish I changed a few things about this quilt,

but that's okay! 

Poor lighting...

Sometimes its about the journey,

not the destination!


  



Happy sewing!
