A Few Finishes

Its been cold here for a while so I've spent more time than usual watching TV with a quilt on my lap - no, not slacking, but finishing the binding by hand.

That means I actually have a few finishes to show:

My Rainbow floating charms (or LJR7 ) quilt

And the first of three quilts from shirt fabric

 I've also finished another dozen named fleece jackets
 

And I've finally done the Magna Carta 1215 2015 embridery panel


In other news I've had three creative classes this week.  Hopefully you can see photos if you click on the SLIKstitches Facebook page, please let me know if the link doesn't work for you.

In short we have a nearly finished baby changing bag from Monday, a cushion made from our transfer paints fun in January, a proggy owl and some faux cathedral windows from Chertsey and a great two hour session with kids dipping in and out of all the craft resources boxes at church yesterday

  6. Hi Benta! Your quilt tops look beautiful! You can guess that I love the RAINBOW one but also the quilt with shirts will be fantastic! I really love to use men's shirts, they have lovely colours and material. x Teje

  9. Very nice quilt finishes. And what's the Magna Cata bit going to be? When my friend Michelle came home with me from France we went to Salisbury Catherdral and saw one of them.

  12. That is a beautiful shirt quilt. The black & white stripy binding I can glimpse looks like a great complement too!
