Working at Home!

Like everyone else, we have been forced to cancel our face to face meetings for now. What will we do? We all have firm resolutions to carry on at home , to use up the 'stuff' in the cupboards and drawers. And for our well-being too. 
Hopefully I will be able to share some of our work here over the next days.

So, to start with, a quilt I have just finished after much delay. It was from a book by Pam and Nicky Lintott, quite old, and I loved the quilt immediately  when I saw the sample in their lovely Dorking shop. Because it was an oldish book, it took a long time to source an appropriate jelly roll, and then I wanted to enlarge the quilt , which involved a great deal of maths. Not to mention angst!

But now it's done.

It would be lovely to post some work by other members.
Keep safe!
