Heritage Happenings…

My camera card was full of lovely quilts taken at the Heritage Guild Mondays Stitching …Unfortunately my camera is an inexpensive  Lumix by Panasonic.  Don’t get me wrong…I LOVE my camera!  It’s small and sturdy, I can toss it into my purse and not worry about it… and it takes wonderful still pictures but actions shots…not so great!  More than half of the quilts on my card were blurry! :o(  I take the pictures when the quilts are being shown to the audience.  They are being whipped this way and that…I focus and then whip…the quilt is moved to the other side of the hall…resulting in a blurry pic!  I have got to get a better system!  Too bad, as there were some REAL beauties…

So let me show you what turned out…

Well what sort of turned out…

This quilt is getting basted ready for hand quilting….P1180955

And this is the Block of the Month!  Carol just threw these blocks down on a table so that we could see what had been collected so far.  If you want a chance to win all of these blocks all you have to do is make one out of black and white fabric and your name gets put into the drawing.  It’s visually stunning, isn’t it!

OK…I’m off and running!!  Today I am ‘White Gloving It’ (lah-de-dah) at the Cowichan Exhibition!  My camera is charged and empty and I have got to fill up that card again!  Those quilts better be hanging nice and still…:o)

Have a Sunny Sunday and Happy Quilting!~P

  8. I think the one that is getting basted is my favorite... great way to use up scraps but with a neater scrappy look!
