| Louise is taking a turn at hand quilting the 2018 raffle quilt, so she worked on it at community sewing, allowing us all to catch up with its progress. |
 |
| Some of these blocks were made by one of our older members before she sadly became too ill to continue sewing. She donated the blocks and the fabric to make the remainder to community quilts. Elaine B is honing her curved piecing skills in finishing the quilt. She is nearly finished, so Saturday was a good opportunity to lay them out with input from others, and to audition fabric for the borders that will be needed soon. |
 |
| Roslyn was in charge of fabric cutting, and craft stall business with Georgie weilding a rotary cutter for a good stretch of time. |
 |
| Roslyn is often called upon for a fabric and colour opinion. She liked Helen's border choice for a cute chicken panel Helen found deep in her stash (with no memory of ever having bought it), and suggested that mitred corners be a good finish. |
 |
| A very collaborative effort, this small lap quilt is one of two made by Julie from a pretty fabric bundle donated by Noelle, using Sue C's tumbler template. All three were on hand to baste them, and Julie is now binding the larger one. |
 |
| Noelle makes beautiful quilts, and beautiful scraps - these pretty, fresh pinwheels are made from the leftovers from quilts she made for her grandchildren. The raspberry border is a brilliant choice. Thank you for donating it to community quilts, Noelle. |
