Remember this quilt? At the beginning of the year, our Saturday Sewing Group set a challenge - to complete a 1930's quilt by our Christmas break-up day.
The Challenge was on. There was lots of bantering and a few people (who shall remain nameless) showed their competitive side, some vocally, others silently.......... It did make for a fun year and lots of inspiration to get a top finished and the final Sow & Tell was a beauty. Here follows some of the quilts.
Bridget's Clamshells
Christine's Baskets
Christine's 2nd quilt
Joy's Dresden Plates
Sheryl's 9 patch, please note that it is quilted and bound......
Jenny's 1st quilt
Jenny's 2nd quilt
Jenny's 3rd quilt
The next two are Christine's original 1930's quilts brought back from New York
My latest photo of Evie and,
Just had to share this one taken by a professional photographer when she was just 10 days old. I can't wait to see all the others that were taken.
Keep cool everyone, we are in for a heat wave and are bunkering down with four days over 40oC here this week!

Fabulous quilts...a clever bunch! Evie is gorgeous!
Well no I'm not usually a fan of 1930's quilts but these are lovely. You have all done so well. Evie is so sweet.
Love all the different styles chased for the quilts.
Well done all of you.
What a beautiful little grand daughter you have. I bet you are still smiling.
Fabulous show and tell and all so different. You are all so prolific too and rose to the challenge admirably. I may have to go and dig out that charm pack now. Little Evie is the star attraction though. She is just beautiful. Great photo. Stay safe and cool in your heatwave.
Your granddaughter is so sweet!
Did I miss your '30's quilt? The clamshell quilt really caught my eye.
Such a sweet photo!! and what a beautiful girl.
I loved seeing the 30s quilts.
What wonderful quilts you all made, I love 30's but have yet to make one. What a gorgeous photo of Evie.
All those quilts are beautiful! And Evie is adorable!
They are all beautiful. Well done to all. Hopefully I will be able to join in this years challenge. Evie is looking gorgeous.
Evie is just darling, and so are all those terrific 30's quilts. I love all those Aunt Grace repros; they're so happy looking. :)
Take care,
