waterfall workshop stack and slash quilts







Ok these are all the beautiful quilts the ladies produced..remember some of these ladies had never quilted/pieced before what a great effort...We had put many different kits together with a great selection of colours and fabrics....think everybody got something they liked they where $40 for the kit..which made about a lap sized quilt....


one lady bought all her own fat quarters black and white and made a quilt for her hubby for chrissy last year..i charged these people half price to quilt these quilts..thought that only fair as they did it in the class...and hers was a monster bigger than a queen size and she finished that top that day too i think( she was an experienced quilted but wanted to learn the technique)..my friend Rhonda wanted red black and white and hers was stunning..they are crisp clean colours..there was another smallish country colours quilt,some aboriginal prints some fresh yellows and blues and jenny bought her own funky colours and made mum a table cloth.

The cost for the class including lunch was $60..there was lovely salad rolls,ham and chicken,cheese and fruit platter,coffee and tea and many cakes laid on as well..so for a hundred dollar day i think it was great value.I am looking forward to many more workshops/weekends in Grafton.
