When quilting gives you LibertyTana lawn scraps, be like
Roslyn and save them to make a very stylish long Boro scarf.
To tame the long narrow piece as she worked on it,  Roslyn
wound each end around a cardboard tube from a roll of cling
wrap, and stored  each of them in its cling wrap box side by side. 

The raw edged scraps were ironed onto a very lightweight
interfacing, and backed with a lightweight lawn, the
layers hand-stitched together Boro style.
What a beautiful way to keep warm this chilly winter!

Susan did a ‘Medallion in a Day’ class with Margaret Sampson
George at 60 Stitches. She did indeed complete the medallion
centre in the class and went home to complete the quilt top over
 a weekend, armed with a little new fabric and done fabulous
suggestions for using some carefully stashed favourites.

The quilt top has responded beautifully to machine quilting
by Jane Rennie (Quilting Finesse). Susan is particularly fond of
the octopus print and the Liberty stripes. 

The backing fabrics is a nod to one of tge recipients
who is an architect,

Another facet finish from Susan - an orphan block
compilation that initially had Susan stumped to construct.
But she is delighted with her new couch quilt,
also quilted by Jane Rennie.

The leftover blocks transform the back of the quilt.

Sharing Julie’s quilt top before it’s finished because her
plan is to have it quilted and despatched to Western Australia,
so that it can then travel to its new owner in Germany
with his Granny.

We did wonder how long Julie has been saving
the delightful Lion King print.

Margot shared a little quilt made some years
ago that she is fond of.

Marilyn was knitting , but her knitting bag (made from
 a kit) was pretty patchwork.
