I cant draw and admire all the talent. I do make patchwork quilts though. But I cant remember how to add photos to this site. It is years since I was on here. any help gratefully recieved.

Welcome back seaburn, good to see you. It would be lovely to see your quilting work, if you want to put a photo on just click on 'Add image to post' at the top right when you've clicked to post a reply, this brings up a box with 'drag or drop images here or post a url', I usually click on 'drag or drop' & this brings up a box with links on your computer to where your photos are, click on where the photos you want are & click on the one you want, then click on 'upload' & when you click 'create post the photo will appear. It's probably slightly different on tablets/phones as this is the way I use on my laptop.

This one is made using Stash and Whack technique. It is a lap quilt and will go for sale at the village hall charities fair. My proceeds go to our local hospice and MacMillan nurses.

The next photo is of a 78x78" quilt I am making for my daughter's future mother in law. At the moment it is 56x56"

It's a skilled art you have seaburn, the colours in the second quilt are lovely.

they're beautiful seaburn

A couple of bargello type patterns that I made several years ago. one is a lap quilt called interlocking triads.



This second one is a single bed quilt and the pattern is called Watersmeet and is designed by Jan Hansard. These are the only 2 that I have made from other people's designs. I tend to design my own patterns.

They're lovely seaburn, the last two look like they take a lot of concentration!

Lovely quilts seaburn, especially the last two. I had to look up what barbells was as I've never that term before.

I have finally finished the quilt for Victoria's future mum in law.
It is 84"x84". Hope she likes it as her son helped to chose the fabrics.

[grindle]

Clever folks.
I used to do Embroidery, but my hands are too bad these days.
No pics of them either.
Is Story writing arty or crafty or neither?

Oh yes geumgrower I think story writing is an art in itself . I think anything creative is an art.
