Show and Tell and Raffle Winner


Lucky quilter, Heather, won our Mothers Day raffle wall hanging. Loretta presented Heather with the quilt which she had donated to the club some months ago as a UFO. Many of our quilters worked on it to bring the quilt to it's lovely finish.

 















This beautiful log cabin quilt was made by Lyn R to send to a young couple in England as a wedding quilt. They wanted grays and Lyn has done a beautiful job adding the seagulls for interest.















Joan R did this wonderful circular bargello in a workshop with one of Toowoomba Quilters' tutors, Lyn Crump.  The colours are much more vibrant than the photo shows. It's quite a large single bed quilt, beautifully executed.




















Here is Teresa proudly displaying her lovely embroidered wall hanging which has taken her a few years to complete, but worth the wait.  It is a Bareroots pattern and Teresa has done a lovely job with this one..

Vicki showed us this quilt which is a different design using various shaped strips of fabrics cut and rearranged.  Good work Vicki!
 
Teresa is working on this star quilt top which was put together by her sewing friends and herself.  It was meant to be a surprise but Teresa 'sprung' them working on it. It was for Teresa's recent 'significant' birthday.  We look forward to seeing it finished.

Our next meeting is Saturday, 5 June - so see you there with more show and tell.
