SHOW & SHINE -- 11 Jan 2016

January was a pretty quiet month for Show & Shine.  There were only 3 members showing a total of 6 quilts.

1.  Judy Prince has been using up her salvage edges.  She has finished two queen size quilts with salvage edges as the main feature.
     a.  Squares on point. 

         The back view gives you the story about how this quilt is put together.

        b.  This looks like flying geese.

            Again, the back tells the story.  What a lot of work!

2.  Helen Wilde's first quilt inspired our request to have her demonstrate how to make a scallop edge on a quilt at our next meeting.  Take a look at this quilt and you'll know why.
     a. 

          Close-up of the corner of her "9 patch" quilt.  Perfect scallops.

   
      b.  Stars within stars, now this is impressive.  A number of our guild members were wondering if they could borrow the pattern.

          Here is a close-up of the machine quilting she did on this quilt. 

3.  Dawn Collins showed two small projects she made over Christmas.
     a.  A small Christmas table runner.  She thought the colours weren't great but you work with what you have.
               Photo to be added soon.

     b.  A Moon Santa table topper.
               Photo to be added soon.
