crafty cleverness.....

a little catch up on some of the crafty gorgeousness on Wednesday night....



Marg's sweet little teddy bear...



Amanda's Argyle quilt made for her now-fiance Josh (love that engagement ring, Miss Amanda!)...


Sarah's pretty applique...




Maureen's stunning french braid quilt, made with the beautiful 'Panier des Fleurs' range by French General. A really beautiful quilt, Maureen.


and lastly, just a gorgeous box of threads - I loved seeing all these colours sitting next to each other waiting to be used in Amanda's stitchery - photos to come soon

Lancaster quilt show

Just came across this in YouTube, a collection of winners from the AQS in Lancaster. I think it's one of the best, if not the best quilt show I've seen. Enjoy !

new members, new quilts


Looks like I'm the blog-hog at the moment! Welcome to new members, our group is betting bigger - and should I say it - younger! Great to have new members and new ideas. Here's a lovely quilt made by Sarah? (Not too good with the names yet). Traditional sampler with some lovely blocks.












Donna finally finished a quilt too - doesn't happen often these days! It's a table runner, own design, hand made, and going to Germany.









Egyptian quilts

Hi ladies,
I just wanted to share a link to an interview with an Egyptian quilter, and his quilts. They are amazing! Enjoy!
