Monday and Tuesday and "Show and Tell"

We've been pretty busy again this week! We planned to make pillow cases and ended up also making cute little bags and fabric baskets from patterns I stumbled across on the web. So there are heaps of photos of these this week as well as our regular show and tell!

Starting our post is Ann's little dog in the back of her ute....all dressed up for the festive season and looking a little windswept!

This is Effie's quilt being made with blocks she received for her birthday recently.

This is Ruth's Hidden Wells quilt that she made at a class here earlier this year.

This is Pam's quilt made in our Mystery classes in April and May. The bias cut borders look great!

This is Claire's table runner .....

And some pillow cases she made....


Joan's pillow case.....

Elaine's pillow case...

Then we made some cute little bags from Joan Hawley at Lazy Girl Designs. You'll find the pattern at www.lazygirldesigns.com/blog/?p=1920
This one is Joan's .....

And this one is Ann's ..... she doesn't normally "do" bags, but found this one irresistable! Note the fussy cut lady on the front....the back of the bag has a rear view too - but didn't get a photo of that.

You'll find the pattern for these handy little fabric baskets atwww.kiwiquilts.co.nz/site/kiwiquilts/files/Kiwiquilts%20Tied%20basket%20pattern%20Dec%2007.pdf
(We used template plastic in lieu of cardboard so they could be washed and cut strips at 1.25" to make the ties)
These two are Elaine's....


Carol's....

Joan's ..... she received a fair bit of ribbing for "cheating" and using ribbon instead of making her ties.....much quicker tho!

Lorraine's....

and Nancy's....
