It’s amazing how slow it is sewing 250 odd half square triangles together.
I am trying to make no more than 2 the same, but the pile is slowly growing.
HOW MAD DO YOU THINK I AM? I am thinking of starting a Dear Jane Quilt. My DH says ‘why would you bother’ but I think you can only make so many quilts for the cupboard. Although I have set myself the 16th birthday task for the grandchildren. I have 7 more to do over the next 11 years so that’s not too bad is it?
I am showing a couple of photos of my little gifts that I received over the ‘Quilters Christmas party swaps’. Aren’t they lovely?
This lovely little quilt came from my friend Bonnie in California. Beautifully sewn and quilted.
Made by my friend Pat, who is in my local quilt group, Village Green Quilters.
This lovely bag was made by my friend Gayle who is also in my little local quilt group. About 6 of us also share a friendship away from our main group and we picked a name out of a hat and made a gift for that person. This bag was my gift from Gayle. She also added a needle case to match!
This is the inside of the bag.
Bye for now
Sue
