Hi all, I hope you are having a good day, I haven't posted for a while, so I thought I would update with all the quilts and things that I have finished this year, well most of them I think there are a couple that I have done but forgotten about. The first photo is the back of one that I finished for my dear friend Jeanette, she and her husband are very good friends of ours that have helped us when we needed it. And yes it is finished and in its new home. The front of it is above.

This one the cat approved of, here he is checking it out to see if it has enough batting in it so he can be comfortable when he sleeps on it, not that he is going to. It was one I did a few years ago in a class with Jan Preston. And my good friend Nellie who finished hers years ago and has it on her wall. It was a great class.


The photo below is part of a whole cloth I did on satin for another friends 50th, it was only a few months late. As I couldn't get to her party, as my father was sick at the time. I had a lot of fun with this quilt, it started being completely different until I discovered the pattern I wanted to do had too many stops and starts so I decided to start with a block in the middle and work out with different freehand borders. They are always fun to do. A picture of the whole quilt is down lower.


This is a bit of playing with threads and painted fabric.






A cushion cover for the lounge which is now falling apart so I will have to rethink the way I quilted it next time because most of my cushions get used an awful lot so they need to just about be made out of canvas. The fabric I used in the background is woven strips of bem silk that I have a lot of.



Well this is the satin quilt, which I was very pleased with I even managed to bind it in the satin. That's all I have, I am now going out to my air conditioned workroom to finish a custom quilt for a customer. Its 41 today and overcast so not feeling so hot. Hope you had fun looking
Hugs Lynne
