It has been a busy few weeks.
Summer heat arrived and so a few projects on the go, to work on and get done sooner rather than later.
Hand quilting on the frame has commenced with the heat of summer. It is just easier to quilt with it on a frame,
One wedding quilt is getting close to being done quilting on my sewing machine.
Learning to quilt on a longarm machine in a practical and hands on way. This quilt, a group of us worked on for a Mother and fellow quilter whose adult son passed very unexpectedly. It was just so very important to make sure this gets to her as soon as possible.
The mystery stitch a long is now up to date for July. Some tidy up happened and sorting out of fabrics and projects. Finished baby blankets and a diaper bag left for its forever home for a mom who is having twin boys in about 8 weeks time.
Finally got a chance to sort panels together, pieced tops and smaller projects. Found some more binding, the leftover binding box is full again. Have one large rubbermaid box with just leftover fabrics from finished quilts. All the little bits is now grouped together and is in one place, making it easier to find. The Serengeti can get some more slow stitching as well.

Purple quilts at the show.
As July is Purple, these quilts are grouped together.
They were eye catching.
Some had bits of purple and others lots.
A few others which may have or may not have any purple in the quilt..
Part three…
This one was special.
The applique was my favourite part of the show.
More pieced quilts.
There was two Afternoon Delights.
Part two of more quilts…
As promised more quilts from Quilt Canada 2025. This one was a minature quilt.
Our time was limited, so I was taking pictures along the way.
More quilts from the show.
It is a little bit cooler this evening, the Scottish pipes are playing. The bands practice on thursday evenings through the summer.
The use of colour was bold and none of the quilters held back using as much of it, both in traditional and modern quilts.
I will be sharing the photo's for you to enjoy.
