| ‘In Conversation’ in Melbourne: Louis Joel Arts and Community, Altona 19 - 31 August 2023 |
 |
| Elaine B was captivated by the ‘Unallocated’ quilt made by Nerida. The design is by Michelle McKillop. Elaine made her very colourful version in just a few weeks, finishing it just in time to give to her granddaughter visiting from overseas. |
 |
| The blocks are 3 1/2 inches! Long arm quilted by Janet. |
 |
| Its beautiful large scale Heather Bailey print backing is an excellent foil to the tiny blocks and multiple prints on the front. |
 |
| Soft and drapery, Marg V’s blue beauty is hand pieced… |
 |
| … hand quilted … |
 |
| … and backed with a complimentary/gently contrasting French General print. |
 |
| Hand quilted. The border is a popular Anna Maria Horner print. |
 |
| Noelle made her first version of this gorgeous quilt for her granddaughter, but there were some blocks left over … so a few more joined them to become a community quilt. Note the pieced border corners and the very carefully chosen border print. |
 |
| Quilted by Laura. |
 |
| During Covid lockdowns Robin used her stash to make a rainbow of log cabin blocks, that she has quilted in the calm after a recent house move. |
 |
| Elaine G adapted a design to appeal to the mechanically minded. The gear wheels are appliqued with hand stitched buttonhole stitch. |
 |
| Susan dived into the community stash for her half square triangles, borders, background and backing fabrics |
 |
| Quilted by Laura, bound by Lynette. |
