Friday night sewing




Glad to see some of our sewing group have been productive.
Here is Mrs ZippyZippy busily churning out metres of bias binding for her to use in her wonderful laundry bags or on her bright and colourful buntings.
It was fascinating to watch, and very relaxing to see the transformation of fabric strips into ironed bias strips.

Sandra has made her first quilt, part of the Pinwheel Quilt -a-long that Mrs ZippyZippy co-ordinated in the later half of 2011 for our sewing group.

Fantastic work Sandra!

Well done Sandra, who is busy planning her next quilt, thanks to her Mum who had passed on a kit with the fabric and pattern to Sandra. It certainly makes it easier to begin, when the fabric choice has been made already.
