June 2025 Show & Tell

 I am starting with a repost of the last quilt made by Annette. The club marked her passing today at the June meeting. Vale Annette. We miss you so much.

At our recent Half-Nighter I assisted some of the ladies making the Jelly Roll Race quilt from a pattern by Donna Jordan of Jordan Fabrics. It is always lovely to see the variety achieved by using different fabric choices for the same pattern.

The first was made by Caroline from a hodge-podge of incomplete jelly rolls I sourced from Spotlight (on special, of course!). It will become a Te Awhina quilt some time in the future. 

The next one was made by Donna

This one was made by Lesley

Next is by Veronica

Then Susie’s, who put her pieced strips together using a different method. I think it looks great. Green is Susie’s favourite colour.

Then next is by Linda

And this one by Hannah

Lastly is the quilt I made using a Kiwiana jelly roll I had been given quite a few years ago. This completed quilt will be going to the Te Awhina Quilt Project.

The following two completed quilts will also be going to Te Awhina. The first was made from. Floral 5 inch squares from the late Heather M’s stash.

And this one is part of a king size quilt top made by the late Amy. It was refashioned into a suitable size for the Te Awhina project by Mary, who sadly, is moving away from us. We wish her all the best in her new adventure.

Next up are the results of the Travel Bag class held recently tutored by Sandra. They are all stunning.

Now, for something a little different, Jenny H completed this knitted squares blanket started 10 years ago.

It looks great!

Carrying on with the bag theme, Caroline made this patchwork duffle bag and quilted the pieces on her domestic machine.

Caroline also made this Handy Caddy bag from a YouTube video. Very handy for club days.

Next up is a very special quilt made for a young man with special needs who has recently moved into a flatting situation. He loves all things Halloween and Lesley did a great job sourcing a good variety of fabrics

Some of the leftovers made it into the cool backing.

Last, but not least, is a top made by Karen C which was started a a retreat many years ago. Good things take time.
