It is cute, Wendy. I love the chicken wire background. I have some of that fabric.

:lol: Yes Barb come on over

Actually a few years ago I did an online workshop with my chicken forum. At my patchwork group we were doing a qult where you sew squares together, slice them then turn the pieces 90 degrees and resew. I did it as a mystery quilt and we had a hilarious time. I didn't realise when I started that some had never done patchwork before. They got there but it started some on a real love of fabric and sewing. This is the quilt - my version but we got some stunning results in batik

Hi Wendy, I've just watched the 2013 quilt show on the link you posted for the British quilt and stitch village....what a great looking show I think it looks more interesting than the National quilt championships at Sandown.It seems to be getting smaller every year, I suppose it's because it's so expensive to rent space.
Hope you have a great time at the show.
Anne

I have to admit that since I ran out of room to pin them up on a display board, a couple of the later ones have started to be used :whistle: But that way I get to look at them regularly :)

Wish I could find the last 3 I started.....aaaaagggghhhh its bugging me.

I'm a long way from my youth.

Rosemary started us on the mug rug route. I've not made any for a year and have really enjoyed making a couple. Good for trying out techniques or a satisfying quick project. After my husband told me off for putting a cup on one he has pronounced them useless
what does he know :lol:

Wendy,

Wish I could be there to be your assistant!

I hope you win the youth award at your quilt show!

Just outside at Belper between Derby and Matlock. Our group is in Wirksworth which is in the Peak District.

There's the Quilt and Stitch show on at Uttoxeter on next day www.quiltandstitchvillage.com/ I've entered a couple of quilts which my husband is cursing me for as we're emptying the kitchen into the living room on the sunday when I pick them up :whistle: Small show but some good traders.

It would be lovely to see you again, I know you wanted to see the Peak District before you leave :)

Remind me where you are? I know it's Peak District, but that's a big area.

You took the words right off my keyboard, Geneva. I so look forward to making and sharing these little gems. And it was great fun to see the slide show but wished it could have included them all. I'm up for continuing the exchange with any them the majority would like to use. :silly: :cheer: :kiss:
