Yesterday I went with my friend Jan to the Brisbane Quilt Show. Of course I forgot to take my camera so took a few photos with my phone. They aren't great so will just show a few of the beautiful quilts that were on display. The 2 photos below were made from the same border piece of fabric and was one of the challenges given to any quilter who wanted to enter. The face was just stunning.
Some very talented people as can be seen by the above three quilts.
Two of the red work quilts. The display of these quilts was wonderful. Of course there were lots of traditional quilts as well. It took quite a while to view them all but was time well spent. The photo below showing the quilting on this piece is what I would like to aspire to. Wonder if I will ever get there?
Today I stitched the buttons on these little place mats made from Lucy's Crab Shack fabric by Sweetwater. I bought the little kit from them but forgot to also buy the pattern so just made my own up. The pockets are for holding your cutlery. Very cute , I think.
I have completed another block in my Gardeners Journal. Still stitching away on the last two blocks. Posted this on the Stitch-A-Long blog a couple of days ago but have been too busy to post on here until now.
Well, that's all for me tonight. Happy Stitching till next time......
