Show and Tell.....


This week was Quilt Group day... so I have some show and tell pictures for you.... 

Some of them didn't have sheets with information about them...


I loved this caravan one....


Here is one of the pictures close up... lovely detail










I think this was a Community Quilt donation one...


The woman organising the Community Quilts is pretty amazing in getting things done.  A lot of planning, cutting and arranging beforehand.  She had a bunch of quilt tops which had been kitted up with backing and wadding so I brought a couple of them home with me to do over the next few weeks.  

I haven't opened them up so have no idea what is in there!

I continued on with Inner city.... the width of these is 72" now (I need to fill in the gaps on the sides) but I think I want to go quite a few more rows down so that will be next....  time to join more pairs.


I did get quite a few of the Blackwork sweets done....  doing 4 of these a month with friends...  so I am up to date


A lovely swap from Maria arrived this week....  I do love cheerful kitchen towels so this is perfect.  I forgot to photograph the one I sent off but it is somewhere over the Nullarbor Plains on it's way there ...


Managed to get a skein of the thread I am using for my (coloured) blackwork garden so I have taken it out to do again...  I am a few beds behind and would like to have all these done by the end of the year... and add a small border.

This one is called Ascepias which I have never heard of... but they are pretty in their flowerbed.


Of course I have a quilt on the frame too... this is one I made several years ago....


Righto, Gotto Go..... Hubz is out mowing as more rain is due to come and the lawn is looking a bit like a wheat field.... I am off to chop up bits a pieces for supper.... Chicken Fajita's.......

Have a lovely rest of the week....

So many beautiful quilts displayed. I love the caravan one too. The black and white one is awesome, or is it some purple in there? Your blackwork and quilt are coming along nicely.
