It’s unusual not to see tables piled high with finished quilts at our St Mark’s Quilters monthly workshops, but last Saturday we had just one finish, Gillian’s colourful kindy quilt made from a fun space themed panel.
But never fear, there was activity aplenty as Blankets of Love (for RPA Newborn Care) and kindy quilts (for the KU Marcia Burgess Autism Specific Kindy at Liverpool) were planned and cut…
Quilted
and admired.
Perdita made this magnificent Double Irish Chain quilt for her daughter and, at our insistence, brought it along for “Show and Tell”.

Finally, two more things you don’t see very often…
Someone (Cath) so fanatical about the colour purple that she has matching iphone and ipad covers, and a thread bin, scarf, spectacles and rolling luggage all colour co-ordinated.
And a rare shot, taken by Cath, of me working on my latest quilt for The Marcia.
Di, that's a great group you have going! Their work is lovely.
ReplyDeleteYou ladies look like you have so much fun together!
ReplyDeleteI was smiling all the way through this post. Oh how you make me miss spending time quilting with friends! Thanks for sharing Cath's purple-passion. And it's definitely nice to see you (pretty in pink, as always) enjoying yourself too... or at least LOOKING like you're having fun! Thanks for sharing everyones' lovelies with us.
ReplyDeleteWhat a lovely post!! You really captured the fun that you all have together. All those quilts are so cheerful and wonderful. I know 2 purple people who manage to find and wear all things purple, It's lovely to see a photo of you too!
