Well the community quilt is finished and donated to the Thames Community along with several others. I think to date my quilting group has donated about 21 quilts and there are still some more to be finished.



I am a bit behind with my blocks in the Splendid Sampler quilt but these are the latest ones I have managed to do.
The weather here has been horrid raining everyday but then it is winter so it is what we should expect. I off to Taupo on wednesday to play golf with some friends from Patea. A 2 day teams competition so that will be a lovely catchup. Just hoping the weather is kind to us as it can be very cold in Taupo and the weather report is for snow in the mountains.

Community Quilt

Well it was community quilt day on Wednesday with my quilting group. I did the sewing for a quilt Mary was designing with a scrappy piece of dolphin & alphabet fabric. It turned out really nice sorry I don't have a photo of it and Mary has taken it home to quilt. I took this top home and have quilted it now just need to put a binding on it.

It will keep someone in need warm. This the last machine quilting with my Janome as I hope to sell it and buy a new one.

Row by Row



If you would like to see the row by row quilts have a look at the Cotton on Quilters website they are all there. http://cottonon.blogspot.com It also shows the round robin Quilts that some of the other member made. I didn't feel up to doing that. I imagined myself getting to the last round and running out of time to get it done. Maybe I will challenge myself another time.

Progress on the building just wish it would stop raining we seem to have had rain everyday for the last couple of weeks hope we can get the roof on next week. I had better go and do some more. You can see what will be the deck now.

Community Quilt


I've been doing the row by row quilt, a row each month so I can't show you that. I have made a quilt for a little 6 year old (well just the top for now I have until October to finish it). This is a community quilt. My quilting club that I belong to makes community quilts every 2 years so here is a photo of my contribution.
