March Monthly Gatherings

March has seen some restrictions lifting and more Members attending our Gatherings.  We also had several new ladies join us to become Members.  This month's show'n'tell is amazing.  We shall start with Applique and work our way through it all.....


Penguin by HSh

Christmas Bear by KM




The two appliques, above, are so very cute.  They are going to be in a couple of fun quilts soon.

Below are two very pretty applique quilts, using very different techniques.  

Dream Catcher by JG
Stained Glass by JD


Some very cute hand embroidery with JMc translating a hand drawn elf into a stitchery and RD stitching a toadstool pincushion.



French knots into flower centres to being a new embroidery project by C in stunning, bright colours.


BH has been diligently working on her sashiko piece for a while now and it looks amazing.



One of the newest members, EMc, has embroidered, appliqued and had quilted her version of the Sue Spargo pattern - Folktales.  WOW! is the only word that comes to mind!!


Still in finishing mode, JG, has made a garden trellis quilt.  Soft, subtle and pretty.


Below - HSh was busy with binding.  She has made a grandchild's table mat, completed a very old UFO green table-runner and put together a Dr Seuss quilt top.




ML is hand-piecing apple-cores.  Love the light and dark colour choices.


JMc is hand-piecing octagonal flowers.  Each time she joins us there are different coloured flowers being stitched together.


One of our newer members, JS, is creating a very funky and modern looking hexagon quilt.

AdJ is making a Jen Kingwell pattern.


JG has had another finish, and this one's an absolute beauty!  It is the La Passacaligica quilt from one of the books by Willeyn Hammerstein.  Those "jewel" colours against the black background are amazing!


W is working on very, very pretty dresden plate circles with Liberty fabrics.



JG has been finishing all sorts of projects - cup of tea anyone?

And... to finish off all of the glorious March Show'n'Tell is this gorgeous (to me) classical blue and white winding ways by HSm.

 

We hope you've enjoyed this trip through our monthly gatherings.
