Happy Sunny Thursday Quilters! ☀️

Hope you are all doing well!

Some of our quilters went on a little trip yesterday to visit Louise at the The Wonky Giraffe 🦒 yesterday as a planned group outing!

Louise guided our quilters to through a workshop with a kit which was a felted needle and scissor holder shaped like a wee thatched house!

Thanks to everyone at the Wonky Giraffe for the class and the beautiful lunch and hospitality. The ladies are already working out when to come back!

A little preview of what everyone worked on is below, and of course our shining ladies!

Special shout out to Amanda Serrels Bryan for organising this wonderful trip for our group, we appreciate all your hard work organising!!!

Happy Sewing! 🦒🧵🪡

Happy Sunny 🌞 Saturday quilting friends!

Hope you all are enjoying what looks to be a lovely weekend ahead!

We were pleased to be able to host a talk from Jennie Rayment during the week, and what a real treat we had!

Amazing to bring together so many lovely ladies even from outside our Biggar Quilters group and Jennie have us in stitches (pardon the pun 😉🪡) as she shared some BLOOMING good stories 🇬🇧 (if you know you know!)

Thanks again to Jennie for coming along, and to Amanda Serrels Bryan and the Biggar Quilters committee who arranged all for us! And to all the home bakers for sharing some goodies!

Happy tuesday everyone!

Our lovely Lynda Wallis FINALLY - this has been a true labor of love project- completed her log cabin quilt!!!

Took her a long * wont say how long... * time to get this stunning quilt finished but boy it was worth it!!

Then she passed it over to our lovely Longarm By Hazel Hazel who quilted it for her!

Im always sure we can use some brightness in our life, and anyone who knows Lynda would agree that is her, and the quilt really represents that ❤️ well done!!!

Our lovely Agnes Barr aka the tea gaffer (we'd be lost without her wise quilting advice and skills and most definitely her tea ☕️🫖 has been working away on this beautiful quilt!

The blues really pop on the white and I'm super proud of her (not just saying this to encourage her to donate it to myself...!! 👀)

And finally it was machine quilted from our very own talented Longarm By Hazel Hazel, who as always spends time discussing what she would recommend for quilting pattern and for thread colour!

Love to see it girls 👏🏻🧵🪡
