'cause when you see the next lot of wonderful quilts we had on show, I'm sure you will agree.

Crysanthemums. For Sale $35
Ankie Boessenkool
Ankie
"A smallish but very pretty piece of chrysanthemum fabric inspired me to use it all in this pretty table runner."

My Hygge Place
Pam Stewart
Pam
"The quilt was made for my daughter's 40th birthday.
She prefers crisp modern designs.
'My Hygge Place is a machine pieced version of 'Metro Rings using the quick curve Ruler from Sew Kind of Wonderful.
Quilted by Pamela Jones."
Wasn't sure of what exactly a Hygge Place was, so google to the rescue. 'Hygge: The Danish Art of Cosiness'-A.


Winter Village. For Sale $240
Wendy Tame
Wendy
"I liked this pattern of blue and white.
The pattern is by Edyta Sitar
I quilted this myself."


Lap Plaid. For Sale $65.
Jan Brewer
Jan
"This scrappy quilt was a good way to use my scraps.
Quilted by me."


Outof the Box. For Sale $180
Marie Weber
Marie
"This quilt is well named. I used a pattern that was in the magazine 'Better Homes & Gardens'.
I wanted to make it but buying more fabric was not my idea. So I went scratching in my boxes and found all these leftover pieces of Japanes fabric, which was just what I needed for this quilt. It is a great pattern for using those pieces that are leftover but too big to throw out.
I enjoyed putting this quilt together and quilting it.
Quilted by me."


Foxley Village
Di Stark
Di
"This was a BOM in Homespun. I had done very little qpplique work and thought this would improve my skills. It also involved some machine piecing which I love doing. There is a story attached to each block. The first block started with "My name is Zacary Twigg. I am the keeper of the keys to Foxley Village and your narrator for this 10-part story of this sweet and fanciful town". It goes on to talk about Fabian (the fox) who is the hero, albeit one who is scared onto the roof by the cat. And so the story goes on - for 10 weeks. It kept me engrossed the whole time!
The pattern is by Natalie Bird.
Quilted by Carmen's Quilting."
Andrea - A net search found lots of links to purchase the pattern but all were showing out of print. However I know that Kimz Sewing and Patchwork has patterns available. Patchwork Angel may also be a lead but nothing came up on their site.


Joie de Vivre
Pam Stewart
Pam
"This quilt was made for my daughter's 40th Birthday.
'Joy de Vivre' is a scrappy style quilt using Kaffe Fassett Collective fabrics.
Only the narrow border and binding are not from the Collective.
I chose bright and cheerful fabrics to shine in the long London winters where my daughter lives.
I machine quilted the body
Pamela Jones quilted the border."



Sudoku. For Sale$90
Karen Doyle
Karen
"Yes, as the name suggests - it is just like the numbers game but made from fabric.
9 different fabrics - one of each in each square, one of each in each column and one of each in each row.
Simple and looks great.
Quilt-as-you-go makes it 'to have' hand sewing to take to patchwork on Wednesdays."



It's a Tie
Karen Wikman
Karen
"One of my Patchwork friends gave me some ties that her husband no longer wore. I used them to make this cushion and followed our 'Reclaimed Theme'."



Autumn throught he Attic Window
Yola Webster
Yola
"I loved this panel of rocks and autumn colours and wanted to make a quilt for my Mothers internal brick wall,. I also wanted to try an 'attic window' quilt.
Quilted by me."


Bargello Table Runner
Marcia Elliott
Marcia
"I made this Bargello table runner at a 'workshop' held here at the Cottage. One of our members showed us how it was done. Fun times!
Quilted by me."


Double Runners
Karen Wikman
Karen
"I love whites, creams and natural coloured fabrics. I looked through my stash for these colours and enjoyed putting these runners together. I use the runners together in my sewing room.
Machine quilted by me."


Greek Key for Zoe and Alison
Sheila Tweedy
Sheila
"This pair of cushions are for my twin granddaughters, Zoe & Alison. We had a greek holiday together and they turn 21 shortly, hence the design is the GREEK KEY. The sky blue was fabric dyed by myself and the denim reclaimed. They are both stars in my eyes."


Jacaranda

Marlene
"Wanted to work a medallion quilt with borders. Drew up tree from copy of photo taken in street at Esk.
Quilted by Fiona the Quilting Fairy."



Circles
Jackie Swan
Jackie
"I loved this quilt when I first saw it on the first cover of Simply Modern. It was many years before I decided to start making it. I really like the opportunity to use the variety of fabrics in the circles.
Pattern by Rachael Daisy.
