And even more St Mark’s Quilters activity!

At last Saturday’s workshop not everyone was working on Blankets of Love. Liz and Barb were happily adding colourful sashings to some New Life quilt blocks.

Remember, the scraps that make up these blocks are so tiny that most quilters would consign them to the bin. It’s such a good feeling to give them New Life!

Margaret was giving  some scrappy strips another chance at life too, as she sewed them into quilt-as-you-go blocks.

And Carol was knitting squares to be sewn together to make warm rugs for Wrap with Love – not to be confused with Blankets of Love!

  2. Oh, I know what you mean about having caring friends! I'm blessed to have them nearby, and I cherish the enthusiasm they have for a worthwhile quiltmaking cause. They're great people, and are there to keep me going when my self-motivation is flagging.

    I especially enjoy seeing your New Life quilts.
