Church Banners

These banners were made over a number of years - This one, "Give Thanks" made from a patter in 2002.  It had an outing a couple of weeks ago for our Thanksgiving service.

"Pentecost" was again made from a patter in 2002 - it's out in the church at the moment for the Sundays after Pentecost.

"Lent - Meditate" was made in 2004 for the season of Lent - must remember to hang it again next year.

"The Way" was also made in  2004 - there is a white donkey in the lower left hand corner - some of my 'friends' tried to tell me it was a kangaroo!!!!  This one is for Palm Sunday.  My own design.

"The Way" is rather a large quilt hanging in the church most of the time. My own design & from my stash as are all the quilts.  Made in 2004.

"He is Risen"  - the archway & bricks started in an Esterita Austin class many years ago.  I added the cross and machine quilted it in 2007.  It hangs at Easter.

 

2QAQ Colour Challenge

This year's colour challenge for Qld Quilters' Art Quilt group (2QAQ) - one of our members are taking us through the colour wheel.  I'm appliqueing tulips & want to have a vase of them.  I may not get the whole year's in to one vase - perhaps there's a series in this ...........naaah - too much work!

Fish Quilt

Getting the applique done - machine blanket stitch around the coral & then finish the fish with satin stitching. The background came together thanks to a jellyroll of batiks I received as part of my Flood Relief package from Queensland Quilters. http://www.qldquilters.com/  The finished quilt will go to the grandson of a friend of mine.

WIP

Having fun stitching detail on to the fish - they will be machine appliqued on to a stripped background with bits of coral & other sea stuff.  Having fun with it - all out of my stash.
