November 2018 Show N Tell

Sorry this is a bit late in posting, I was having a few computer problems but all sorted now.

 

One of the special Heart Quilts our members have made for a member that is not well.

 

 

Our club ran a free motion quilting class by Donna Ward and this is  Donna B. sample piece.  It was a fun day.

 

 

Diana has sewed up some lovely table runners.

 

 

Disappearing Nine Patch, and was made by Judith A. She said she made it to use up scraps.

 

 

Another by Judith, this is an Eye Spy Quilt.

 

 

Judith's Sister wanted something to give to her German Friend when she visits in Feb 2019 so she made her Kiwiana Table runners.

 

 

We had a retreat at Lake Wiritoa recently and these bags were the mystery item they made on the Friday night.

 

A beautiful wall hanging made by Veronica.  It is a Lynette Anderson pattern.  Just in time for Christmas.

 

These looked amazing, Christmas wreath table centres, made by Carol B. and they are for her nieces & nephews for Christmas.

 

 

A lovely colourful quilt made by Kathleen E.  It is made up of 5" squares and the pattern is from a Pat Speth Book and was quilted by a club member Joy.  Kathleen said it was made from her stash but has not made any difference!!!!

 

 

 Frances has called this "Christmas Baskets" and she is going to be hanging in on her office wall.

Veronica made this at the recent retreat we had and is called "Zen Doodle Cat" He has a very cheeky smile!!

 

Our theme for the month was "Too Hard Basket" 

 

This is a very large quilt by Lynda K. and she is doing it as Quilt as you go.  Never again she said!

 

another for the "too hard basket" is this lovely double wedding ring quilt by Maureen L.  She started it in a class by Heather Harding many years ago.

 

This is a "Postcard Quilt" by Sue F. and is a gift for a friend.

 

 

Frances H. made this bag in a Liz Halligan Workshop, very striking colours.

 

 

these two bags are by Carol B. and are from a commercial pattern.

 

These next lot of photos are quilts that our members have made for a community project and the organisation choosen was The Open Home Foundation. 

 

 

 

 

  We were given a list of gender and what their likes were and they will be matched up.  They were very gratefully received and we were told how much they would be loved by the children.  A wonderful effort ladies.
