June club day - guest speaker Helen Bevan

Helen Bevan was our guest speaker at our June meeting.  Helen is an art quilter from Wellington.  She explained how she turns her ideas into amazing quilts.  Here's some closeups of just some of the quilts she bought to show us.








June's block of the month was called "Comb Over" and it was won by Bridget MacFarlane.




I'm exciting about our next block of the month - Faceted Forest. Here's a sneak peak of the samples:


Although we're a quilting guild, a lot of members knit too, so I can't resist sharing this amazing cardigan Janet Evans had just finished.  I guess it's called improv knitting because there's no pattern - she made it up as she went along.  Well done Janet.
