Outside was very bleak and grey.
But inside was bright with quilts, large and small, as our colourful ladies met for our July workshop on Saturday.
So many of our friends who had to miss the June get together were back in the fold again, notably Di B who was savagely attacked by a dog and hospitalized with deep cuts to her right hand and arm just before our last stitching day.
Miraculously, just a month later, there were smiles all round as Di was back at St Mark's Quilters, managing to do some machine sewing and keeping not just her quilts, but all of us in stitches!
She has even started work on another Blanket of Love using some of her beloved Linen Cupboard fabrics by Emma Jean Jansen. Isn't this gorgeous?
Look at our latest finishes, a double dose this month because the wheels fell off for me in June, life was crazy busy, and I missed posting. The names of the quilters are beneath their quilts.

After finishing her cute little Winnie the Pooh quilt Margaret couldn't wait to start another, this one Dalmatian puppy themed!
And Di C showed that a little imagination and colour sense can transform some country-themed scrappy strips in quite muted tones into a bright and fun kindy quilt.
But first I think I need a little lie down.....
how horrible to be attacked by a dog - I hope your friend has completely recovered. There are too many stray dogs here in the country and for the last 10 years I have not felt safe walking on the country roads and need to drive to a fitness center to get my exercise or park trails - it is sad when that happens
ReplyDeleteMore lovely quilts from your group......well done! I love seeing what you all make.
