I was very fortunate to have four quilts to display for my students, as my pattern tester Mae provided two of hers as samples which added to my two gave a lot of options for my students to consider when choosing their fabrics.
We went from 9:00 a.m. until 4:00 p.m. and during that time we managed to one (or more) of each of the units required to make up this quilt pattern.
Here are a few photos from our day:
 |
| Four samples and four colourways |
 |
| Penny chose batiks. Lovely! |
 | |
| Shannon also chose batiks. Love them! |
 | |
| Teresa and Judy busy at work cutting |
 |
| Glenys pressing her flying geese units |
 |
| Nice contrast of batiks in these geese Glenys! |
 |
| Blocks are starting to take shape. |
 |
| Bold solids really define the shape of the block. Love these. |
 | |
| When they start to play together on the design wall beautiful things happen! |
 |
| Teresa is study colour placement. |
 |
| Coming along nicely! |
 |
| Ta da! One is missing because Glenys had to leave early because of an impending storm and a ferry ride that needed to happen to get her home. |
I had a great time and loved seeing all of the beautiful fabrics chosen by these ladies. They each made the blocks their own and I can hardly wait to see the finished quilt tops.
Sew much fun for one day!

Looks like a fun day was had by all!
