Just another 1st Thursday of the Month!

Hi! everyone!
Time for another little therapy session to spread the joy of what quilting and patchwork are all about!
It's the first Thursday in September, the weather is still a little brisk! and the SSS are spending the day together.There are a few empty seats with Merri and Meagan O'Seas,and Sue and Deb busy at work.

The venue was at Barbara's place.
Barbara belongs to a patchwork group associated with the U3A of Nunawading and Di has been cleaning up and clearing out her sewing room (well, that's the story!). She donated a quilt top to the group who are making quilts for the flood affected people in Nathalya



Here are Di and Barbara with the finished quilt.
And what was everyone else working on ?????

 
 Ann is putting the finishing touches to the Broderie Perse on her "New" Antique Wedding quilt. I was working on my "original" older version of the same quilt, and pouring over some new books newly arrived  from the International Quilt Study Centre in the USA.

  Di is working on a new quilt from THAT book coming out in 2013
AND also working on a piece she will be teaching in  France in the next couple of weeks.

 It's shaping up well. Very Di Hall colourations and fussy -cutting. Just love it!

Barbara is working on her version of the famous "Dear Jane" quilt.....nearly finished the inside and getting prepared for those outer blocks. Clare is stitching away on another of her older projects. The last couple of years her clearance rate has been very high!

Hope your stitching is progressing well and you are enjoying the process.
Keep on stitching!

  2. Looks like you had another fun Thursday. Those books look very interesting and the wedding ring quilt is going to brighten up somebody's day for sure.
