Two more quilts finished

We have made a great start to the year with two more quilts complete and ready to go. That is three this year so far. Mind you some of them have been waiting a long time.
Our Green Twister hand quilting was finished by Ruth and Lian and was won by Suzy in the UK. Suzy has decided to have this quilt redrawn. Ruth was our next winner who has chosen to donate it to charity.

Wilma's Chocolate Roses quilting is now complete so Robyn will be able to claim it once it has been exhibited.

Our Next Block

The instructions for our next block are under the RCQ Instructions tab.


Here are the basic rules...
  1. Focus fabric is in the centre.
  2. There must be at least 4 other fabrics that go with the centre fabric.
  3. No solids or blacks.
  4. Squares should be cut to 5".
  5. Centre square will end up 4.5" finished.
  6. Do not trim block to any size.
  7. Cut vertically and horizontally through the centre.
  8. Take time to play with rearranging the four small blocks before you return it to HQ.
The fabric and block design was donated by Linda T from Massachusetts, USA. Thanks for the challenge Linda.
