Another photo from today

Saturday
What is under your needle today?
I heard a rumour we may offer some workshops on a Saturday coming up. More info to come. I was ready to take photos today but this is some of the work tackled,

Saturday Sit and Sew.

Sorry I have been a bit slack in posting up dates.  Saturdays has welcomed new members and some visitors. Don't forget you can invite your friends along for a visit. If they like what they see they have an opportunity to join. 

Kate is always busy. She brought along a quilt which is stunning. So stunning I can't show it as she is  going to enter it into a show and hence it can't bbe viewed before hand.

Both Kate and Robyn had worked on the same design. The had both worked on "Square Dance". It was interesting to put them side by side and see the difference colour choices make

  

Evelyn has made the great wall hanging using batik fabric. I know there was pressure to have it completed as it is a gift for her mother overseas.

Who is the most productive member at the moment?

Judy A. showed us how busy she has been with a great display of quilts all destined for family!

Note the great use of the same fabric range for the backing.
