October

Sandra has made this lovely bag. Some say it would be good for wine but maybe it has other uses.

Linda Has made this bag which caused a few headaches. The size in the book made an odd sized bag so we modified it and now a useful size.

Rae found this pattern in Karin Hellaby's book and bought the material and has made a super job of it.

Sylvia has modified a panel and added her own patchwork in the borders. She has also done some beautiful quilting but we can not see it in the photo.

Pauline has beaten me to it. We saw this pattern in the Heirloom quilting book and some of us decided to try it. The structure is very similar to Cathedral windows.

Betty did the workshop on fabric manipulation and from her own ideas created this cushion.

Betty wanted to try drunkards path so I showed her how to apply a circle to a square and cut into quarters. It might be a cheat but who are you cheating?

This quilt was made by Hilary. The quilting was designed and hand made. Well done for keeping at it.

Jean has made this quilt for her grand daughter. The quilt was made in 2 halves to simplify quilting. The hearts were bonded on then hand stitched with a buttonhole stitch. The rest of the quilt was machine quilted.

Mags made this lovely bag using a New york beauty foundation paper version and machine quilted. the handles were made and plaited.

Rory has made this super bag and now others want to make the same. I will warn you there is a lot of work involved. i think the pattern was bought by one of the students from Rustic Angels at the Brokenhurst Fiesta 2 years ago.
