Oh dear, I do get them sewing stuff regardless, hahahaha...

 I tend to give my scraps to either the school Rebecca goes to or to BRIDGET...

it is hugs and kisses...

 Bridget has done some PRODDY work - not sure if that is spelt right??

She is from Lancashire so has gone back to her roots with this...

 This is Bridget's Baby Jane, which she absolutely hated making,

BUT she persevered and got the job done -

well done B...

 Here is Bridget on the left, holding the Black and White Quilt she has made

with her winning blocks from our Block Lotto last year,

this is her TELEPHONE Quilt - can you spot it??

Brilliant Quilt---again...

 Suzanne bought Bridget a book on Tessellating Quilts for Christmas,

B made this Quilt from the book and is going to give it to Suzanne as a gift for

buying her the book......hang on said I...I gave you the scraps so does that mean I

get that fabulous quilt????  Only kidding, hahaha I think!!!!

Apparently Bridget's face was a picture when I said that at the meeting....

 Back of hanging of UFO by me, I can't find the one of the front...

 Finishing on a really great picture - these are Bridget's Boots,

aren't they just great, I wish I could wear boots like these...

So there we are a truly great first meeting to start us at The Quilt Set off on a new year of classes, fun and gossip. If you wish to come along, please let me know and I will send you the details. We are in Northampton in the UK obviously, but you would be more than welcome, I love to have new people come along. Email me. Look forward to meeting you.

Our next meeting is apparently only 3 weeks away so I best get cracking on what they will be doing.....let me think......
