Layered!!!

Tarja and Jess came over today.  While Jess sifted though all my fabric and button collections to find just the right bits and pieces for her Year 11 Textile and Design Project


Tarja helped me work on some Aussie Hero Quilts.   She ironed the two Ocean Dreaming Quilt tops 

 while I pinned the RAEME quilt.  Then she helped me mark this one with tape so that I can quilt it. 


 Next we moved on to quilting the Ocean Dreaming ones.  This is the Chaplain's quilt. 


 This one is for the other Navy fellow.  Living these colours.  Just as well these needed the quilting and binding as I think Tarja might have tried to pinch one otherwise. 

 Love this whale block.  Those must be mighty big fish though!


We managed to layer two other quilts as well but I forgot to photograph them!
 Tarja and Jess are coming back again on Monday and we will be able to layer the last four quilts that are waiting and Jess can pick up any bits and pieces she still finds she needs.

Till next time.............happy stitching!
