Yorkshire Rose Quilt Show - Part two

It was a great show with many beautiful quilts. Loads of inspiration.

I liked this quilt.

This was beautifully done.

The little challenge quilt I made for another guild.

 Two of mine are on the top.

Below are the write-ups starting clockwise from the bottom left.

And I leave you with this beauty. More tomorrow.

Yorkshire Rose Quilt Show - Part one

Oh my, I promised these photos this week and here it is, almost over. Well, let's not waste anymore time. The venue was, once again very nice. Same place as in 2011. Bright and airy with lots of natural light coming from the big windows.

 

 I love the 3D effect.

I will post more later. My eyes need a rest so I'm off to do some baking and maybe some sewing.

Just a bit of knitting and sewing

For the past two weeks I was in BC visiting my eldest daughter and her family. Since I brought my knitting needles, I managed to get these done.

Five little hats. My daughter had the gray yarn and I brought the mauve yarn with me. I like to visit a little craft store when we go into town and I also like to support the local businesses so I found the variegated yarn there. It's nice and soft. My favourite hat is the top left one, the ribbed one. I plan on making more that style since they have so much 'give' and could fit several sized baby heads.

I also managed to finish this little sweater for Patric. It was in pieces and needed to be sewn up. I had to borrow knitting needles from my daughter's neighbour so I could knit the collar.

This is little Patric who is a year and a half. Time flies.

These are two little bears I made for Patric and big brother Luc.

Big brother Luc building a tower.

 I sewed this rag quilt at home and brought it along. It was a request from my daughter. I didn't clip the edges until I got to BC. It still wasn't finished by the time I left but my daughter knows where I left off. They are all novelty prints and hopefully, will amuse the boys when they use it.

I am hoping to sew something soon. I have been without my sewing machine for too long.

I will now link up with The Needle and Thread Network. Pop on over to see what other Canadians are up to this week.
Linking up with Esther's blog too for WIP Wednesday.
