Name of Maker: Lyn Duhig (lduhig)
Jacki's Unicorn Quilt - Stack 'n' Whack in 5 purple and pink toned prints including a unicorn print. Sewn by overlocker. Intensively freehand machine quilted for Jacki's 7th birthday. A great opportunity to try freehand machine quilting, with a different pattern for each of the 5 different fabrics, including outline quilting the unicorns on one of the prints.

Quilt for baby girl
Name of Maker: Tama Blough
Quilt for baby girl - I have always loved Winding Ways. I bought templates at a quilt guild meeting and when I was asked to make a quilt for a friend's grandbaby I thought a small quilt was a good place to start. I love this block - there is something very soothing about the gentle curves and the circular motion.

Hearts of Americana

Queen of the Cats

Queen of the Cats - I was making samples for a class I wanted to teach on fabric collage. I enjoyed working in this smaller format, even though I tend to prefer making useful quilts. This is a companion piece to another collage "Antioxidants".
Starry, Starry Night
Name of Maker: Lyn Duhig (lduhig)
Starry, Starry Night - Gift for (brother) Cam and Nat's "Engagement & House Warming". Their colour scheme is blues & greys and I found a Charm Square pack that exactly suited, and then needed a design. I saw this design at a UFO (UnFinished Objects) retreat weekend and it all came together. The name combines the stars and the colours with the first line of the 70's popsong, "Vincent" - "Starry, starry night. Paint your palette blue and grey".
