Recent finishes

Basting and quilting larger quilts is somewhat of a challenge during ‘stay at home’ public health orders, but some of us are  making good progress, giving us some very nice eye candy.

Val’s third Kawandi finish is made from her French provincial
fabric scraps, it measures about 22 ‘ square.


Nerida is going to enjoy this one at home for a bit before gifting it.
 The blocks are all half square triangles. Made during last year’s
 #moremodernhstbom2020 run by Steph Jacobsen and Zina Hull Clark.
 Nerida added the sashings and then big stitch quilted it with
Perle 8 DMC in lots of different colours. 


Helen latest finish is a combined inspiration from the 2019 fussy
 cutting challenge by 
@naomialicec providing monthly themes,
 and the beautiful ‘Little Miss April’ designed by Margaret
Sampson George
. Paper pieced and machine ditch quilted.



Helen’s bright and fresh half square triangle top is actually
now a finished quilt,  for our community collection, having
been quilted and bound by Laura

Helen was delighted with the bargain backing she picked up
as an end-of-bolt at Cottage Quilt Works before the
current Sydney lockdown.
