We had a visit last Tuesday from this special, classy bear.
His maker is our very talented member, Ineke. Thank you for bringing him along Ineke and introducing us to your wonderful bear. Such neat stitching!!!
Diana R must have been thinking of Independence Day and did this red white and blue. Very striking.
Last Saturday we had the most glorious sunny winter’s day here in Toowoomba. Quite a few of our members made the most of it and came along to our mid winter meeting. It was lovely to see some show and tell hanging.
Margie and Sue S have been collaborating on some community quilting and have made this quilt called ‘Favourite Things’ for a young lad named Noah whose family has been affected by the earthquakes in Christchurch. We send everybody in Christchurch our best wishes.
This pretty one is for the Mental Health Unit in Alstonville, NSW. and is called ‘Peaceful Shores’.
‘Red Stars at Night’ has been made to donate to The Chronicle’s ‘Adopt a Family’ in December.
Margie is also a wonderful art quilter. She has made this small quilt as part of a challenge to use fabrics from another art quilter in her group – to set size, set topic (A Changing World). Her piece has antique, current Indian textiles,block printed fabrics and bangles/computer parts. Very interesting work, Margie.
Angela L showed us this lovely wall hanging. She had purchased some of the fabrics on her trips to Japan and has worked the sashiko on vintage indigo pieces. The octagonal quilt design is from Kitty Pippen’s “Quilting With Japanese Fabrics”. The quilting was inspired by a sashiko design in “Sashiko-Blue and White Quilt Art of Japan”.
Thank you to all our members who keep producing these wonderful quilts for show and tell.
