Our Birthday Chair

One of the members of CQs brought in a chair she had covered for Show and Tell.  As we often needed an extra chair, I thought this would be a good idea.  So of to the local op shop we went and found a suitable chair for $8!  I decided to try out my 'chair covering' skills making a birthday chair - we usually decorated a chair with streamers and balloons.  Miss Nine (last Wednesday) was delighted with it.  Miss Five was a little put out that the chair had not been for her birthday in May.  However, she had a turn on the chair and all was well.  I plan to make an 'everyday' type of cover in the near future.

Sue's Journey Around the World

This is one of the quilts I entered in the Caloundra Quilters Quilt Show.  It was admired by many and I spent time explaining to many how I made it.
I had made a bag for our 'bag raffle' (a pic had previously been posted on this blog) and was surprised when my sister who had come on a bus trip to visit our show won the bag!  I was told it was a very popular bag with many wanting to win it.   I know it will have a good home and will be greatly appreciated.

Beside the Sea

These are two mug rugs and a bag I have made very quickly for our display case.  The theme of the quilt show is Beside the Sea and we are carrying this theme in the display case.

Quilt Show

I went to a quilt show at Glasshouse Mountains today - there were some very lovely quilts.  The quilting on one was a real standout - professionally done by machine.  One of our CQ girls was on white glove duty - nice to have a chat.  No photography was allow, hence no pics to post.

QUILT SHOW BAG RAFFLE

Here is a pic of the bag I have made for the bag raffle at CQs quilt show at the end of July.  I have only a sleeve to add to a quilt and the challenge to go!

FINISHED - MY LITTLE GIRLS

I have finally finished a quilt for the CQ Quilt Show at the end of July. I will post a pic after the Quilt Show.  It has 49 blocks of Sunbonnet Sue all around the world.  It is hand appliqued, free motion quilted and assembled using quilt as you go technique.  I am pleased with it.

Cat and Dog Cushions, Etc

Love these cushions I have made - very cute - I plan to sell them at our June Fair.  Have included pics of other bits I have made.
