So our group was Linda, Elaine, Karen W., Kathryn, Roslyn, Carol and myself.
The first task was to cut the binding then attach it to Heather's Sunflowers. Elaine and Roslyn seemed to achieve this without running into one another.
Karen spent the whole day attaching sashing and cornerstones to Christine's Posy blocks. Much frustration with blocks that were different sizes and sashing that had been cut too short. This will be a project that will hopefully look fabulous but will have generated a lot of swearing (i.e. sewing spelled incorrectly).
The only task with the Sunflowers is a label and photograph then we can draw that quilt and decide its fate. It really looks great.
Cathy's Purple hidden 9-patch received its next border and decisions were made about binding. We've found a great blue/purple fabric for it. The next phase of this quilt is to sandwich it and tack it.
Carol and I spent time putting sashing on the bookcase quilt. It is further along than the photo shows but we had to keep reminding ourselves that the shelves needed to be perfectly horizontal. With Linda's extra block we have added a row at the bottom which has inspired a spider's web.
Linda also spent some time on her latest Wizard of Oz quilt with lots of maths happening.
Kathryn drew our next fabric so everyone who has organised their envelope or pick up will receive a piece of fabric and soon I will write the instructions and send them out.
In all a great day with a lot of work achieved. Thanks to all those who helped.
