At the last two gatherings we've already seen some results from Andrea's Layer Cake Class.  The ladies had a wonderful day and it's great to see the variety of quilts that come out of classes like this which provide such a quick result.
Jude's finished top - she added an extra border with a charm pack in the same range
Jenny's finished top

At our latest gathering we were shown two more variations of this wonderful quilt

Jude's Machine Quilting Workshop

A group of our members and a couple of non-members recently participated in a workshop with Jude Liebmann during which she taught them techniques and strategies in machine quilting.  This workshop covered techniques from how to put the sandwich together and basting through to hints on how to quilt a large quilt top.  Her class was very much appreciated by all who attended.  They all left with a sample of how to use each technique taught.

    1. Your quilt top is looking great Jo, and the quilted objects you made out of your machine quilting class are wonderful, I am sure the recipient will get great use out of them.
