Linda Chevell

 In April, we were delighted to welcome Linda Chevell as our speaker.  She is relatively local, and some of us met her at Market Bosworth, last year.  She’s a committed Modern Quilter, and it was lovely to see her work. 

This quilt is stunning! (Can you see the duck in the centre?). The quilting on it is amazing. 

Linda will be holding a workshop to teach how to make this portholes quilt.  It’s a great technique, which can be developed into different designs.  The workshop is fully booked and eagerly anticipated. 

Vicki and I had participated in a Mystery Improv Challenge which Linda led.  It was a steep learning curve for both of us, but a very different way of working. 

 As you can see, Vicki climbed further up the curve than me, but I learned a lot.  

Caroline made this clever design for a relative who wanted something art deco.  I’m sure they will be thrilled.

Lesley thoroughly enjoyed the recent workshop with Vendulka Battais, and made her work into this pair of cushions. 

Janet made this lovely Patchwork of the Crosses quilt.  She said she would have liked to have made it bigger, but tired of all the EPP! 

Di made this colourful scrappy quilt for an old lady suffering from dementia.  I’m sure it will be a ray of sunshine for her. 

Vicki used up some orphan drunkard’s path blocks to make this great bag. 

The bag is beautifully quilted.  

This beautiful Lone Star quilt was made by a new quilter.  She was very brave to choose the plain yellow for the centre, as plain colours can be unforgiving if the centre matches aren’t exact.  Great result though.
