Lee made this stunning quilt with Wendy Arnold's help in the Anything Goes classes on Tuesdays. I love all the gorgeous fabrics Lee has used in this quilt but I think my favourites are the Kaffe Fassett's (as always!). :-)
Lee started her patchworking career last year by taking Wendy Arnold's 9 week Sampler Quilt course. There's no stopping her now! :-))) Yes, we did warn her about the addiction to patchwork ...

Quiltmaking runs in this family! Mum Margaret made this gorgeous Lattice quilt in the lilac and purple range. I love how simple block combinations make such a stunning quilt and the colours in this one are wonderful.
And daughter Karen made this wonderful colourwash heart quilt. How striking is this? Love it.

With this quilt, you would have plenty of choices! Elaine has pieced or appliqued every one of these blocks, making up the flags of 18 countries.
It's been fun helping Elaine find the colours for each block and amazing to see the results. How wonderful to see what a quilter can do when she puts her mind to it.
Just stunning, Elaine - love it!

Last year Raelene made this stunning king size quilt out of batiks she had been collecting for a number of years. I was teaching a Westalee class at the time and we all came out to see this gorgeous quilt, and to see just what could be done with the quarter square triangles we were learning about.
I could have spent hours just looking at the different fabrics and working out all the shapes - thanks for bringing it in to show us, Raelene.

After so much hard work over the last year, we are delighted to see some of the Westalee Sampler quilts being completed and entered into Westalee's competition.
And don't they look fabulous!! The first quilt on this page is Joan's and the second is Merrilyn's. It's been a journey that has seen all of our skills improve beyond recognition.
I know that there are a few more quilts nearly completed and hope to show them to you soon. Other entries can be seen on Westalee's website.

Margaret needed a new pin cushion for home and this pattern by Nikki Tervo really appealed. It can be made with or without the stitchery and looks wonderful either way.
Margaret loves her stitchery so no prizes for guessing which version she chose! :-) And doesn't it look fabulous?
The pattern is available in the shop and our shop sample made by Sharon (without the stitchery) is in the shop for you to see.

I love it when Judi brings in projects to show us. It's always something a bit different and wonderful. What's not to love about the simplicity of this design where vibrance of the colours take centre stage?
This lovely bush scene used fabric painting along with patchwork techniques to produce a great result. And the 'wood' borders are just perfect with the textured look.
And a wonderful Christmas quilt with a further detail shown below. This one made me smile - it's too cute and I love the grey-green colour of the sashings.
Love it! :-))

Mary made this lovely quilt in Sharon's Stack n Whack class. I love the colour combination used in this and the way the cornerstones are different fabrics - picking up the fabrics in the blocks - great way to use up your leftovers from making the quilt!
We're a bit excited about our Stack n Whack class that Sharon is teaching tomorrow - our first Junior Stack n Whack! Can't wait to have the juniors in the shop - awesome!

I just love this bright and cheerful Star quilt that Vicky made! A wonderful boy's quilt with loads of colour and some lovely car fabric.
I love the fussy cut cars in this star!

Cony made our gorgeous Suzy's Baskets strip club quilt a little larger by adding the jade green border. She picked out fabric that matched one of the fabrics in the kit for the border. Just stunning, Cony! Well done.
