New year, new quilts, new progress

We thought we could be back to face to face meetings by this week, but the pandemic has other plans, so we are zooming, and keeping in touch by other means until restrictions can be eased.

 

Stephanie did a big push to finish projects at the end of last
year, and her plan for new things to work on in 2021 has
started well, with a 'not too pink' 'trip around the world'
of tiny squares.

Stephanie has also joined  an Instagram event, the
#focuscuttingsewalong, aiming to complete two themed
blocks each week. This and the next are her week 1 blocks.



Staphanie's week 2 blocks for the #focuscuttingsewalong

Linda has also joined the #focuscuttingsewalong, hoping
to keep up now that she is fully retired. Her first two blocks
here and below.




Jill has made (and trimmed!) all the blocks for a square
version of a free pattern from @kitchentablequilting for
the popular 'Plaidish Quilt' for the community collection.

Jill pieced a baby sized 'SuperStars' quilt, designed by
Miriam, and just then, along came news of a new great nephew
expected to arrive between Christmas and new year.
So she posted the top down the coast to her sister for
hand-quilting, who then posted it up the coast to their
niece to celebrate beautiful baby Henry's birth just into
the new year. He' already taken it to the park, and uses
it every day, which his great-aunts liked to hear.
