'A Touch of William Morris'
Created by Gwen

Designs Taken from Michele Hill's Books. Machine appliqued and hand quilted

'Peacocks'
Created by Lorraine

Bev at Maleny Magic was playing around with this fabric when I was up there one

day. I loved it so much I asked her to put a kit together for me. The colours in the

peacock are just divine. Machine pieced and quilted by me.

 'Marlene's Reverse Log Cabin Quilt'

Created by Leanne

 Another from the class taught by Marlene

I couldn’t believe that everyone’s quilts looked so

different, but I guess it all comes down to the colour selections & the way you place

your blocks.

 'Smarties'
Created by Marguerite

 

 

I was lucky to be able to enjoy a workshop with June and this is my result. It

was fun! I did so enjoy the pattern coming together. It is bright and busy - reminds

me of a packet of Smarties. Hand quilted by yours truly.


'Flowers on the Green'
Created by Jackie

 I saw the pattern in the NX Quilter magazine. I liked the option of using the large

florals of Kaffe Fassett's fabriccs. Machine quilted by Judy Davidson at Furball Farm

Quilting. Machine stitched by Jackie Swan


'Victoria Street Quilt'
Created by Val

Hand applique was done while on holiday on the Sea Princess. Machine pieced and quilted.

"I Like Orange'

Created by Lorraine

This is a pattern called Double disappearing Nine Patch. I saw this demonstrated on

Utube by "Shari". As I really like the single disappearing nine patch I thought I

would try this one out, too. It will look very nice on the little table in my sewing

room.

Loved the colours. Pattern from "Free" on blog by Moda. Machine pieced by me.

Professionally quilted by Quilting Fairy - Fiona Bell

 'Crazy Maze'
Created by Marie

I downloaded this free pattern from the internet. The name of the pattern is Bento

Box but I have called mine Crazy Maze because I lost my way in joining the pieces

but my Quality Controller {husband} put me on the straight and narrow. The quilt is

made with a Jelly roll and strips that I cut. I quilted it on my domestic sewing

machine and the quilting looks crazy too.

'Plain Sailing'

Created by June

Designed for a table on my son's yacht. It was pieces cut to go around a curve. It

had to be individually pieced and I could not use paper piecing as each piece had

to be pinned and looked at carefully. There are 64 points. My son really loves it.

'Just a Few More Flowers'

Created by Gwen

 A closer view of some of Gwen's flowers to show the subtleties of shading in the fabrics.

Bought the fabric and pattern from the Palmwoods group. Loved the fabric. Green is

one of my favourite colours. The fabric beads really show off well in this lovely

fabric.
