Weekly show and tell

Yvette made this quilt several years ago, for her husband ...
... and he is happy that the fabrics are not too 'girly'. It was quilted
by someone else, long before Yvette had her long-arm machine.


Daphne foundation pieced this blocks from her impressive
stash of bright scraps and a little black and white. The setting
triangles are a fine purple and white stripe, also from the stash.
It's never too early to start stocking the craft stall for our
2020 Quilt Show - Dawn is making scissors keepers that
can also be used to keep a few pins at hand.
Elaine B has used triangles, squares and pentagons 
to construct a patchwork ball
Elaine brought her machine appliquéd and embroidered
fantasy quilt top in for some expert embroidery advice.
It’s coming along very nicely!
'Pickled Sharks'  is a variation on Chris Jurd's 'Pickled Fish' 
quiltmade by Jill at her son's request. The palette is drawn 
from NRL team colours.
Quilted by Yvette (Keepsake Quilts), the design is 
called 'Sails', but they could be fins ... the backing 
fabric is a Carolyn Friedlander wideback.
