Activity

They may have braved floods to get here - but the workshop was buzzing with activity this morning - eleven of us all working on different crafts.  There was bag-making, quilting, knitting, sewing - and I was unpicking - but not my mistakes this time.  I'm unpicking an old quilt and then I plan to put it together again!  There is method in my madness, and I think a very beautiful quilt will result, but we'll have to wait and see!

Dawn finished loom-knitting the latest of her hats:


Ros has started quilting her first quilt which she made in our last Beginners' Sampler class (the new class starts in April and there are still places available).  It has been quite an experience for Ros - she is an expert knitter  - and below is the jumper she has just started - beautiful work and made out of the softest wool you could imagine :


so her first quilt was quite a leap into the unknown, but we all thought it was beautiful:


And after coming to Pitch and Stitch to get lots of tips, Doriana has finally finished her first quilt, (designed by herself for a friend's baby, and started 17 months ago)  of which she is rightly proud.  Now she just has to get the label on and baby has a lovely quilt to snuggle under!
 
What an industrious bunch!!
