September meeting

in September, we had the pleasure of the company of the lovely Roxanna Pallet from 'Hannah's Room' as our speaker.


Here she is with some of the goodies she brought to tempt us - I was one of many unable to resist!  Her talk was called 'I'll show you mine, if you show me yours' which was a little worrying, until she declared she was talking about UFOs!  Lots of people brought in orphans and tops, and were able to get inspiration, or get rid! 


June was typically on-trend with the raffle, which was Autumn themed. 


Here are some of the tombola prizes ready for our exhibition at the weekend.  Plenty of variety there. 


This is a quilt I made from a pattern in Stuart Hillard's new book.  I love the way it uses up loads and loads of 2.5" squares. 


Here is a Linus quilt with lots of colourful little pigs! 


This quilt has been made from Aldi fabrics.  They sell bundles of fat quarters from time to time, and these are all Winnie the Pooh designs.  Gorgeous. 


This cushion reminds me of folk art designs with its insects and flowers. 


Paula made this Linus quilt using leftovers from the Stuart Hillard workshop, using a Little Lavender Patch pattern.  Blue and white always look so clean and fresh. 


Here is another blue and white quilt.  Lovely. 


Sian made this Luna Lapin rabbit.  Adorable. 


This teddy had seen better days and was in need of a repair.  He's now back to his former glory. 


Here is Sian's Magic Tile quilt made using London themed fabrics.  The lettering enhances the design beautifully. 


Hearts are always a good design, and these ones in muted colours look very sophisticated. 

Don't forget our exhibition on the 28th and 29th September.  See you there!
