Here we are at the last meeting for 2023. 6 days till Christmas and still so much to do.
We had a few Show and Tells today as well as the Birthday Girls.
SHOW AND TELL
Marlene
Marlene has had a busy year but still managed to finish a wall hanging for Christmas.
Just lovely Marlene. Love the needlework.
Debra
This is Debra’s second attempt at shimmering triangles. She didn’t think the first one shimmered enough. Well I think you have the hang of it now Debra. It looks great. Very optical illusiony.
Step back to view this lovely quilt. You can see the effect beautifully.
Debra’s next quilt was made from Christmas give ways. I think that means she used her Christmas member gift to make it. Well done Debra great use of fabric.
Love the colours. They blend so well.
Judy
Judy’s quilt was made for her son, made from Ties belonging to him and his Father and Grandfather.
Wonderful use of an item not so in use today. Just love the colour co-ordination.
The close up.
Wonderful job Judy. Quite inspiring.
BIRTHDAY GIRLS. – December.
What a busy month December is, we thought it was just for Christmas but quite a few of our members have December as their birth month.
Happy Birthday to you all. Hope you have a lovely Birthday.
Left to right. Carol, Elizabeth, Trudy, Gail, Marlene and Joan.
Special wishes to Marlene who turned 80. You look too young to be 80. Hope everyone had a great day.
Also a special Birthday wish to Christina, unable to attend the day. Many Happy returns Christina.
