Session at Towse's house on 3rd May

Well, it was a small but perfectly formed company, namely Towse, Carolyn and Judy who got together at Towse's house on Friday 3rd May. It doesn't seem to matter what we do, we can't seem to find a date that suits everyone! As you can see from the expression on the dog's face - it was not at all a stressful experience!

 
Judy finally started hand quilting a piece that she started rather too long ago and had been putting off. She discovered that you can actually achieve quite a lot in a couple of hours. Carolyn is finishing off her quilt top and inserting a rather nice piped piece at the same time. Towse is using a couple of her orphan blocks from her sampler quilt and turning them into cushion covers for a couple of friends 'special' birthdays. She has told her friends that if they get something 'hand-made by Towse' it is a certain sign of how much she loves them!
You can vaguely see the Dresden Plate cushion cover on the table - amongst the inevitable coffee mugs and cake plates!
The next session will also be at Towse's house on Friday, 31st May. The email has already been sent out with full details to everyone. It would be lovely to see more of you!
