I used all 3 types of piecing/stitching on this, but I'm pleased with the colours. E

Did It!





Did it myself. Queen size quilt on domestic machine. First time ever and it actually doesn't look bad.
Finished. Yippeeeee

If in trouble, improvise ...

I decided after 3 "flowers" that there was a high probability that the plaid leaves were not going to meet at their tips.  What to do?  Unpick the blighters?

Given Kim has gone off piste with every one of her blocks I felt entitled, empowered and emboldened to do the same.  And, as a bonus, my solution halved the amount of hand appliqué I had to do.

I like it, and feels that it marries the circle and square themes in the other blocks well.  Ciao S x

Bowls and blocks:
Herewith my bowl (Marg).  It took me less than 30 mins and was lots of fun!  Have you ever joined the cording successfully to make a bigger basket?  
Also a pic of my blocks to date - I'd been thinking they looked a bit boring so I tried to be a bit more adventurous with the latest 2.

some Saturday photos

Hi Girls these are for the ones who couldn't be there.
However I realised I didn't get many and you have maybe seen some before. If anyone else can post photos to that would be great.

Hi Marg, all these look fantastic! - thanks for sharing.  I was in Spotlight yesterday and found an unopened 33m spool of cotton cording, 6mm (30% off sale).  Hopefully, I'll have something to show you next month.  Elizabeth
