BLOCK OF THE MONTH QUILTS


Block of the Month Quilts
Welcome to my first post showing some of the quilts made by the Coffs Harbour Sewing Team, using Blocks of the Month sent by a wonderful group of volunteers.  
The Team meets on the fourth Monday of each month and works on about ten quilts together.  Two or three ladies just do appliqués all day, others work in pairs to sew a quilt together and some work individually on a quilt that they take home to complete.  We have several ladies who do the quilting on long arm quilting machines and a couple of our ladies love to do the quilting of their quilts on domestic machines.  
I have the privilege of selecting Requests from Jan-Maree's weekly List for the Group and creating designs, using the Blocks of the Month, to meet the Requests of the Recipients.  
Several of our Team like to design their own quilts, also using the BOM.   
Once a quilt is finished, several of the girls return to take another Request to work on at home.  We all love making these quilts for our Aussie Heroes.  
I hope you enjoy looking at some of the recent results of our work.  I hope you can spot some of your blocks in these quilts.
