‘Not quilting’ she says …

Have been very busy, not quilting so have nothing to contribute again this week. Have finished a “seven sisters” hand quilted for a friend (hand quilting only), so I have been doing something!
Picked up Joanna Green’s stash from her son, Joseph. Have gone through it and will bring it on Wednesday to go on the sale table. Donation to qfos.
- Two bags cut out but not started, no patterns.
- Quilts cut out, one is “peacock at the gate”, no pattern, a challenge.
- Knitting stuff, needles, crochet hooks, embroidery hoop,
- dare I say it, seven sisters with home made templates,
- clam shell template and papers,
- hexagons cut out with papers, etc,
- lots of bag wadding,
- quilting books,
- Margaret’s owl pattern and sample and lots cut out.
- Quilt bags ,a sewing machine bag, hand held, knitting bags, etc.
Anything not taken will go to the op shop Wednesday afternoon. If you are interested in something and you cannot make it (to the Wednesday 17th meeting) give me a call on ….

My siblings and I are cleaning out the family home now that both my parents have passed away. So much stuff,so hard to dissociate from things we knew Mum treasured. My nephew does amazing cross stitch and embroidered portraits on FB and Instagram. Such a pleasure to pass Mum’s embroidered pieces onto him. When he was in Grade 5 he had cancer and loved spending time with his grand mother making appliqued Christmas Tree skirts etc.
