August Show N Tell 2023

This lovely wall hanging is by Carol Burgess, the pattern was purchased on line from America and of course when she saw it she just had to buy it and make it. A real cat lover Carol.

A lovely pink and cream log cabin by Beverly Casey and she did it as a quilt as you go.  This is  her first quilt made in early 1990's while she was a member of the Pineneedles Patchwork and quilting club in Tokoroa.

 

 

 This lovely quilt is called "Fly High" and was made by Maureen for her Grandson who choose this quilt top for his 21st.  He recently qualified as a pilot hence the name.

Another by Beverly called Mum's Quilt and it is a lap quilt that she made for her Mum during one of her visits to her in Wanganui when she was living in Costa Rica and hand quilted it the next time she visited.

This is a beautiful quilt and is by Rosie Neilson and is a Tula Pink creation.  It took her 3 weeks to make and the worst part was all the cutting out.  It is going to be for her Grandaughter in Perth  and John Nielson quilted it.

Another by Rosie and this one is a Sue Spargo pattern and is called Home Grown.  It has taken her about 2 years to make and she stitched it in her Woolie Quilting group with Jenny's help.  Is has been quilted by Jacqui Karl.

sorry these came out in the wrong order.... This is the back of Maureen's quilt and is a lovely wide backing'

And it goes with this quilt called Cottage Treasure.  Was started at a fun day with Luchielle and Jenny and we could use the shop, Foxes Cottage, scrap bin.

 

This is a cot quilt called "Safari" and was made by Bep and quilted by John Nielson.  Bep made it for her third Great Grandson and she was so excited because he was born that morning when we had our club day on Saturday.

This very large quilt, could not quite get it all in the photo, is called Town N Country and was a block a day for a year pattern by Susan Claire from Gourmet quilter.  It was made by Judy P. and she purchased the kit off a friend who had started it, only about 3 rounds, and she machine stitched it over a number of years at retreats she attended

A quilt called "Cone star" and is by Belinda.
