Who's For Some Extra Sewing Time?

Once Narelle got over this little hurdle it was onward to Patchwork day.

Margaret was making short work of some fabric and ric rac she purchased at the Brisbane Craft Fair.

Step 1.

Step 2.

This cute couple also came along with Margaret.

After our last patchwork day, Kerry went home and cut heaps more rectangles to continue with her scrappy braid quilt. Looking good Kerry!

Fay also made some fabric purchases at the Craft Fair and brought these lovely place mats and runner to continue quilting on.

Creating with one fabric!

These wonderful bags have also been made by Fay which she brought along for show and tell last time.

Not another scarf? I tend to get carried away with the latest knitted scarf each Winter. Here's a ball I bought at ... yep the Craft Fair.

Have you guessed that a few of us made it to the Brisbane Craft Fair ... 4 of us attended on 3 different days. Wonder what number 4 can share with us next week?

IMPROMPTU PATCHWORK

The hall has been booked for an extra patchwork day on the 26th October. Hope to share some stitching time with you!

Australian Quilt National Quilts on display

Opening Hours are 10am- 4pm Tuesday to Friday, 11am - 4 pm Sat and Sunday.

If you are interested in art quilts, could be worth a drive. Cheaper than flying to USA to see them.

Dye Painting with Ruth Wagner

Very very early Tuesday morning,Margaret, Narelle and Di headed off to Proston for a Dye Painting Workshop. 

After a quick cuppa it was heads down and full steam ahead.

After drawing our designs and choosing dye colours, it was time to whip out the brushes and begin painting. Here are some photos of the ladies busy adding colour to the fabrics.

It was a most enjoyable day with a lovely group of ladies. Big thankyou to our tutor Ruth and we look forward to some reveals at Patchwork this coming Wednesday.
