Margaret's block

Hi Margaret
This block did not turn out how I was anticipating, but a really interesting way of using up scrap fabric .  I really loved the finished quilt and was tempted to use for my block.  Now my quilt is in one piece, your block is pieced and cakes have been baked for my Husband to take on a charity event he is taking part in tomorrow, it is time to think about returning to work.  I know what I would really like to be doing, but if I don't work, I will not be able to buy any more fabric.

A virtual cake for you!!  Happy quilting.
Best wishes
Wendy

  2. Hi Jackie, I will dig out the instructions and happily post to you and anybody else that would like them. I will ask Jennie to post a picture of her quilt as I always think it is interesting to see the same quilt in different colour ways. Wendy

  6. Wendy, What a fantastic time you have had at the machine and in the kitchen - the cup cakes look so yummy. Your Around The World quilt is looking lovely. And your Convergence quilt has inspired me to dust off the Ricky Tims Convergence Quilts book I bought back about 2004. One day! J.

    1. Joanne, Susan is very interested in making a convergence quilt, I sent her the instructions that we were given on the day, but if you have already made one, you might be able to help Susan. It is something we will possibly make at Christmas. Loved the idea of getting a small quilt from 4 fat 1/4s. Best wishes Wendy
