Three for Three!

Flower Feathers!


Very pleased with my progress this week. I finished Gill's sweet pastel quilt with my first attempt at these flower petal feathers in the border. They were so pretty and such fun to do  - I think I will be doing a lot more! 







Then I moved on to a complete contrast; this striking black, grey and white strippy quilt, with its bright red accent, was a group project from Studio Quilters led by Elaine.
(You can't really see the quilting black on black in the pictures).






Next up is this  version of Janet Clare's block of the month design featuring wild flowers in raw edge appliquébeautifully executed by Michelle. It's all loaded up and ready to go. I will start quilting it next week, when I have time to do it justice.










Meanwhile, I will be doing even more foundation piecing on a Christmas runner project at tomorrow's workshop by Kate Percival at Connecting Threads. I might cut into the silvers and blues that I got at Duxford! Who knows, it might be finished for this Christmas.

Happy Quilting Everyone!
Janet
