Community quilts in progress

There are always more community quilts being made than we know about. Here are just a few that were captured in photos recently - tip of the iceberg! Thanks to everyone making community quilts, whenever we discover them.

Lynette introduced us to Emily Bailey’s ‘Play Ball’ pattern 
several years ago, and it has not dated. It was chosen to 
showcase some beautifully coordinated fabrics generously 
donated to the community stash, with several members 
cutting and sewing the initial four patch blocks.

Sue C added the triangles to the sides of the four patches,
 trimmed them into the ball shapes, and put the tops together.

There are enough blocks left to make a third quilt.
 It might not be the last we make with this fun pattern.

The background fabric is a multi-coloured spot.

Jill hand pieced these simple blocks, colour and tone doing
the work. The fabrics were left over from earlier projects,
and some from the community stash.
The top will be pin basted at our next sit and sew day.

The backing fabric is a Jocelyn Proust print,
donated to the community stash.

Batting and backing (donated hexagon print) trimmed, ready for
long arm quilting by Laura. Jill made these improv pieced
blocks last year and put them together during the winter.

Hilary is making a ‘Bespoked’ quilt, designed by Annette
 at Sixty Stitches. Will it reduce the scrap collection?
