Customer Show and Tell

This past week we have had two wonderful finished projects brought into the shop to show to us by our customers.
First up is Dianne's Waratah Quilt. Dianne took Melinda Bula's workshop with us at Quilting in the Highlands 2012. It is amazing and looks fantastic.

 

Our second customer show and tell is this award winning jacket. We would love to congratulate Jane who made this wonderful jacket and has been award 1st place at the local Robertson Show last week. It is definitely colourful, just the way Jane wanted it to be. Jane quilted the jacket but unfortunately it doesn't show up on the photos. It was made using the Sedona Canyon Jacket pattern. Congrats Jane!

Quilting in the Highlands Day 4

Day 4 was our last day of Quilting in the Highlands. 4 Fantastic days of learning, laughter and more. We could not have wished for more from our teachers, who was a talented and lovely group of ladies, it had been a great joy meeting all of them and creating a friendships with all of them. The students were eager to get started on day 4 continuing their projects from the previous day. The quilts and project were all taking form and it still amazes me just how with  just different fabric the same pattern can look so different. Below are photos taken from our final day of Quilting in the Highlands.
