Unsewing with a Change of Plan, and a very useful camera hint.

Lorraine was doing a wee tad of 'unsewing' today,


two rows of this quilt to be have been assembled but are now having their sashings removed and will be reassembled in the QAYG method that Lorraine showed us in her tutorial.
Brilliant idea, the quilt will measure 9' x 9' so quite a bit to maneuver through the throat of her machine.  I saw most of the blocks on Lorraine's design wall, this is going to be a stunning quilt, and when finished it will live on Lorraine and her Darling's bed.

Ja` is one of Gwen's hand piecing students, and bought along her 3 completed blocks to discuss some of the finer points with Caitti, well of course we all had to have a peek.  When finished Ja` will be giving her quilt to a very lucky friend who has even chosen the colour pallet.

Betty wasn't able to be with us today, but we still managed to see her latest flimsey, it's on it's way to be quilted by Fiona.
Betty has swapped at random, patches from the darker coloured rows throughout her quilt, giving the whole quilt movement and sparkle.

Wendy has finished her QAYG table runner from Beryl's demonstration.  Wendy lay the blocks out in both  design options, using her digital camera she took pics of both and made her decision on the design she wanted to assemble her runner.  Great tip Wendy.

Shortbread and Ginger was all the go for a very yummy arvo tea, Shortbreads, Ginger Shortbreads, Ginger Cake and Chocolate Biccies.....
