Update on current projects

Elaine visited a few times last week as it coincided with delivering and collecting her machine from the repair man. We have now tacked the sandwich for Lynette's Japanese (foreground below) and it now needs to be quilted.

In the background in the photo you can see the next quilt top in construction. Together we started trimming the blocks and adding the borders to each block.

This morning I decided to do the next step on this which was to join the blocks into rows. This is now done and I have added the orange border top and bottom to check that we had enough of that fabric as we did not have any spare. As you can see, all is good and it is looking great. We probably need another border as it is quite a small lap quilt.

Some weeks ago we put the Winding Ways blocks on the design wall. We have one spare so chose to leave out the one that was much paler than all the others. I think it will be a challenge to put together but it will be fun to bring out the circles in the quilting. Though I do like Carol's blocks set on point too.

So arrange a day to come and do the next step in our quilts and make sure all you blocks are back for the next ones.
