FLORA for Lorraine. Cheers,Pam

Flora for you Lorraine.

I so enjoyed having a go at this quilt, with my boxes of thread and brightly colored fabric.

The background is a dark purple color eventhough it comes up as blue.

Look forward to the next challenge.

Cheers, everyone!

Challenge Dec-Jan 2012 'Flora'

''Flora' Goddess of flowers,  December/January challenge.
I enjoyed the 'broderie perse' technique cutting out little flowers from an array of fabrics and fusing them together to create my fabric picture. Have booked accomodation & airline tickets for the Sydney quilt show in June, so hope at least some of us can meet and check out all of the challenges 'in person'

Windows

The inspiration for this quilt came from the stain glass windows we saw on a recent trip to Europe and Britain. There were lots of the beautiful traditional ones to see, but there were also some more modern ones in very bright colours. Ngaire

Milk Round - Helen

Probably no need to explain the thought process for this quilt. I'm not sure whether the fact that I lived on a dairy farm and an uncle owned a "milk round" business (both a long time ago!) had any influence.

Round and Round the garden.

Hi Kerry,
I made this little quilt with a suffolk puff feature because they are 'round'.
Round when you cut them out and round when you sew them up.
I really like them because they are so versatile.
Enjoy your new house and fill it with quilts.
Cheers,
Ruth

Four Phases of The Moon- Kerry Glen

Kay ,I do hope you received your little quilt.I spent time thinking about time and came to the conclusion the basics of time is the measurement and that is determined by night and day and the passing of. The cycle of the moon is very relevent to the passing of time.  Can somebody work out how to place this in the correct space.?

Christmas has come AROUND again

For Kerry,
This was a difficult subject [for me] Then I kept seeing all the Christmas decorations in the stores - and everywhere else. So I am always stirred by the bright shiny colours - so here are some for you Kerry. Hope you enjoy.
I must say I am really enjoying this challenge group [albeit, I always seem to be late with my submissions etc.]

OK now for the next challenge how about - 'FLORA' - this should make it easy for you girls over the holiday break

cheers Lorraine
