Show n Tell for April 2018

 
The theme for this month was "Harvest", only a few to show this month.
 
 
this beautiful quilt was made by Donna B. for her Husband's 50th birthday.
 
 
 
A quilted waistcoat by Jenny R. She has called it "Harvest Pumpkins" and has Debbie Mumm fabrics in it and was made years ago!
 
 
Titled "Farm Yard" and was made by Judith A. This quilt is a donation to Top Kids Childcare for them to raffle as a thank you for all that they have done for her Grandson Josiah, a wonderful idea.
 
 
"Sun Bonnet Sue" another by Judith to raffle for Topkids Childcare.
 
 
This was one to make for fun and is called "Sunflower Garden" by Judith A.
 
 
A Bassinet Quilt made to order by Judith A.
 
 
This table runner started out as a block of the month but the fabric provided was not like the shop sample and ended up on her design wall for about a year! Heather McL. finally deceided to just use the blocks and made them into a runner.
 
 
A Christmas Tree mat which has been made for Heather's son & daughter in law. There is no hole in the middle as their tree stand is an antique wrought iron one that they do not want covered up.
 
 
Another by Heather and is a Christmas table runner made to accompany the tree mat.
 
 
This was a row by row by Carol Burges and Kiwi Quilters and was a 2007 swap and has finally been finished and the top is now hers!
 
 
"Maple Leaves" by  Madeline McC. and was made for her spare room.
 
 
and another by Madeline made for her spare room as well. It is called "Autumn Stars"
 
 
This lovely quilt was from a tin purchase and Rosie N.  machine quilted it while on a Club Retreat.
 
 
 
A journal cover, front and back by Rosie and was the weekend retreat's project.
 
 
This is an apple core purse and was started in a workshop in Melbourne by Bep.
 
 
Bep also made these Christmas Stars and they are folded not stitched , amazing.
 
 
When Bep (and other club members) went on a bus trip to Auckland for the exhibition she bought this pattern and has completed it now. It is a laser cut tulip.
 
 
"Hawaiian Delight" by Jo B.  A friend designs material for Aloha shirts and Jo was given the left over pieces and made this quilt.
