Christine's Doiley Quilt is finished

 My Doily Quilt – finished at long last – evolved over the years but I am happy with the finished product though it is not like my original plans.Thank you for your input and inspiration – it is another tick off the list

It looks fantastic Christine.

Betty's Progress

 I am making lots of these at the rate of about 6 per day between getting outside with the dog, cooking, cleaning and zooming in lockdown.

i really like the ocean waves I think. I'd love to be able to quilt these waves eventually but will see how I go.

Karen's temperature quilt progress

 I'm persevering with my temperature quilt, and have nearly done the first half of the year. Attached is a sample of the blocks from March (1st March is at top left). The colours are reasonably close but not quite true. What looks white, for example, is actually very pale green. Regrettably, my sewing machine is starting to sound like a chaff-cutter, so I have my fingers crossed that it will keep working until I can get out and take it for a service. 

This is going to be a colourful one!

A brain challenge from Elaine

 Putting her blocks on point as suggested in our last Zoom gathering gave Elaine a headache but WOW what a result.

I love the colour themes in the blocks.

Elaine remarks that she does not know whether to thank or curse the person who suggested she put them on point.

Betty needs help please

I've started doing Snail Trail blocks with all my scraps and leaders and enders. I've now got to the stage of deciding - 

• do I keep them small as in the top row?
• do I add another triangle on each as shown below left?
• do I make the second row twist the other way rather than making them all twist in the same direction?

 If you click on the picture you will see it bigger.

Don't worry about the blocks that are not quite so obviously twisted as I can always put them in the corners or just leave them out.

If you have any suggestions please leave a comment below or just email me.

Thanks.

Betty's lockdown quilt for little Heather

Heather requested a Purple Quilt. It is now complete. 

A single bed topper.

Stephanie is inspired

My school of fish is progressing very nicely.  I hope a shark doesn’t come along and upset things.

I’m aiming at 8 x 8 patches which will make it 60 x 60.
Thanks for pointing me in the right direction. My head space is much improved.

Jeanette's Show and Tell

As Jeanette may not be home in time this afternoon for our Zoom she has sent me some pics of her current works.

 

Our first Fish School

 Thanks Stephanie for the fun.

Stephanie says:

It amuses me no end to think I’m making leaders and enders and I have you to thank for renewing my interest in patching even tiny pieces
