November 2017 show n tell

Our theme for the November meeting was Christmas.

 
This is a Christmas bag made by Maureen L. She is travelling with her presents so thought it would be easier to have them in a special bag so they do not get damaged.
 
 
Frances H. called this wall hanging "Blue Christmas star" It was a play with a block she saw in Quiltmaker.  She really liked the star created by the log cabin blocks.
 
 
A small Christmas wall-hanging by Lyn S.  She attended a course at Waverly High School one year.
 
 
Another by Lyn. "Pukeko in a Ponga Tree". It was a Christmas gift many years ago.
 
 
This is a wonderful Heirloom Father Christmas made with a local tutor many years ago by Lesley McF.
 
 
And the back is just as stunning.
 
 
Lesley saw this idea of decorating a small table top tree on "pinterest"
 
 
This different Christmas wreath was made by Diana J.
 
 
A log cabin star by Heather McL. It was originally a corner design for a full sized quilt but she liked it better on its own as a wall hanging.
 
 
"Christmas Angel." and "Poinsetia Christmas" another by Heather and made for herself. Designed by Lois Wine.
 
 
A Red work wall hanging made in a class by a local tutor, Christina. This is another by Heather.
 
 
Heather has made these 2 table runners. This one is called Christmas Braid.
 
 
This one is to go on her lounge coffee table.
 
 
"Welcome to the North Pole" by Jenny R.  She started this in a class about 2003-2004.  It is applique with hand-stitching and machine stitching and is embellished with buttons and beads.
 
 
part of a block of the month, by Veronica
 
 
same block of the month, these ones are by Heather.
 
 
and these ones belong to Sue F. We are having a reveal day at our December meeting.
 
 
"Doodle Feather" by Heather. A class she attended by Jacqui Karl.  It gave her a chance to use some of the fancy stitches on her sewing machine.
 
 
Betty B. made these blocks a few years ago. It was a block of the month through Cloth Shop and has now actually completed it. Lovely colours.
 
 
From the Triangle class that was held a few month ago through Quilter's Lane.  sorry I do not know whose it is!!
 
 
Rosie G. is making Christmas presents as a cheaper alternative this year. These are reversible children's aprons.
 
 
and pot holders for the adults.
 
These are Christmas decorations made by Judith A.
 
Betty B. made this small wall hanging in a Gloria Loughman class a few years ago.
