We're back after a really quick summer and ready to get down to work. Here are Jackie and Ann holding up a comfort quilt that Ethel had taken care of...soft and pretty.
Here's another comfort quilt. This is one that Agathe quilted for the guild with a really pretty machine pattern...unfortunately, you can't see it here.
This is the back and if you zoom in on the picture you can see the lions and the tigers.....gorgeous fabric that is on the back of the next quilt you will see.
This is "Around the Twist" that Ethel did for her son that spent some time in Africa.....some fussy cutting for the centre of some of the twists and , of course, that unique backing.
This gorgeous top is called Snowflake and Ethel, who's peeking over the top, made this wonderful paper pieced top at the Villa Madonna this past April. Isn't it stunning!
Gillian has been busy...made this sweet bag and if you notice the basket there, it is full of adorable little girl hats and some crocheted flowers that she is planning on attaching to the hats...busy lady!
Look at this....Ellen Henderson won these fabrics playing strip poker and made this wonderful table runner to use them up....there's just no slowing this lady down.
Here's Ellen's block of the month, all finished ...really pretty in blues and pinks.
Melda got her "Oh Canada" quilt hand quilted.
This is Ann's Scrappy Nine Patch using a technique that she will be teaching on program day in November...get your fabrics ready because it will be a great teaching day with Ann at the helm.
Bea made this adorable puppy quilt for her grandson....flannels in plaids and really nice Stonehenge backing.
Carolyn's grand daughter made this beautiful nine patch with some signatures in there. What a wonder keepsake heirloom. A future quilter for the guild.
Judy made this beautiful table runner. It's also reversible.
This table topper was made using a technique called the "Three Dudes" and she will be teaching it at one of our program days.....another reason to shop for fabric. I do like her colour combinations.
This pretty quilt belongs to Cynthia Vail and was from a challenge at the Quiltery or the Fabric Cupboard...not sure which one. Either way, a great job done with a terrific layout and use of colour.
To completely coordinate the above quilt, Cynthia made a Teddy Bear and pillow to go with it.
This gorgeous project is the pineapple. Love the applique on the corners...it just seems to make the whole thing pop...well, done
Renate is peeking over the top of her Block of the Month..her first attempt at hand quilting...I think she likes hand quilting and we'll see more from her as time goes on....
She's playing with the 60 degree ruler again....I know she likes doing that.
Cynthia and Renate took the same classes to work with their Pfaff machines and had a little fun...here you can see the folios they made with fancy stitches and applique.
That's also a sewing machine cover that Cynthia is holding...these ladies have been busy.
Thought you might like to see a close up of the bag Cynthia used to bring her pieces in for show. A lovely gift from her sister with family pictures on it. Quilting has come a long way.
That's Marilyn hiding behind her faux Cathedral window table runner.
She enjoyed making the first one so much she went and made another in Christmas colours.
A casserole carrier...really slick.
A potato bag...yes you read correctly...it's for nuking your potatoes. Pop them in the bag, pop the bag in the microwave and Bob's your uncle...baked potatoes..in the bag.
Some mug rugs using the 60 degree ruler...just have to challenge yourself sometimes.
This set of mug rugs is made using another specialty ruler...I believe she called it periwinkle......can that be right...there are so many different rulers available now.
Now this one I know. It was made with Squedge ruler. A great table topper technique that I just have to try.
And last but not least here is a hexagon table topper...you know how much I like hexagons.
