I managed to sneak another one in this week.  I pieced this and Carol quilted it for me.  Michelle also embroidered a panel for the back but I better wait till it has been received before I show you that or it might give the game away.

I just had to show off the gorgeous pattern that Carol used to quilt it!

I made this one for a scooter lover but had to wait till it had been received.

I showed the pattern to Carol and don't her versions look great?

Unfortunately the photos do not do these two justice - they are really pretty colours.

What do you think?  Do you want a tutorial?

Melissa

 Rita M was on a roll big - time!

% fabulous quilts are four are reversible.

  

This fellow requested the Aussie flag and the Aboriginal Flag.  It is worth noting that you need to gain permission from the designer of the aboriginal flag before you use it - Rita tried but didn't get a reply so went with the colors instead.

This fellow asked for "you'll never walk alone" on his quilt if possible.  Just as well Rita is in a soccer mad family as I would never have known that related to a Soccer Team!

 Sue s and Aileen completed this gorgeous pair.

   and now for a pic without the Laundry Bag.

And finally with the weekend apon us it seems fitting to put Terry's "Gone Fishing" quilt at the end of the parade!

20am to 2pm.  BYO sewing machine, lunch and snacks.

And just before I go - can I just say thank you to all of you who send me little messages of encouragement along with your emails and parcels. I  really do appreciate each and every one of them and they really do make a difference.

You guys are the best!
