More Blocks

Blocks have been regularly arriving, and my Thursday Night team have been working on making them into quilt tops - I'll post the 'finished' tops later on.

Thanks to Anita, Jo and Janet for these.

I have to admit that working with blocks that I haven't made has been a real challenge for me. I've had to work with colours I wouldn't normally use - and that has taken me WAY out of my comfort zone ... it's been FABULOUS ... I think I've learnt more about colour in the past weeks than I have in last 10 years!

Thank you lovely people :)

Embroidered blocks

Not all the blocks have been pieced ... these are embroidered - how beautiful.

Kim's blocks

These blocks from Kim heralded the 'beginning'. Kim is my quilting mentor - and I know she organises the 'challenge' quilts I have been involved in at Patchwork House in Hawthorn - so I asked her for guidance in this quest. She has family at PVCC who were affected by the fires, and gladly offered Thursday nights at her house to help get these quilts going.

Kim is the stash QUEEN ... and generously gathered armloads of fabric, as well as a finished quilt and quilt tops recently completed.
