More afternoon tea things

Last night, Andrea brought her afternoon tea challenge in, as well as a rather yummy sponge cake with strawberries. Thank you, Andrea! Also, Helen showed us her challenge placemats, which she's still quilting.

Andrea's "Strawberries & cream" table topper, beautifully stitched and surrounded by luscious oriental fabrics.


Helen's placemat in rich coffee colours look just gorgeous, and we look forward to seeing them quilted.

Afternoon tea in the evening

Busy working before our afternoon tea in the evening! Marg, Helen, Sue, Annette, Margo and in behind Margo there are Donna and Tania.

Afternoon Tea Challenge

I hope I'm not too late to contribute my afternoon tea challenge item!!

It's not quite afternoon tea... but more of a brunch item, and this is only because the fabric reads "If we were meant to pop out of bed, we'd all sleep in toasters" I am going to give this plunger cosy to my sister for Christmas (I'm not usually organised this early). She is addicted to coffee and she will appreciate the kitsch nature of the cosy as well as the colours (not to mention the pom-poms).

I just love being a part of Gisborne Quilters, and I can't wait to attend more often.
