Just got back from a fab evening at craft club - a mixture of quilting and crochet, with wine, cake and lovely friends. We're making progress on our group club quilt (the colours aren't quite right in the picture - the sashing is a gorgeous vibrant pink) -
I am quite inspired to start my own quilt, but it feels like the sort of project I'd need to devote a few reasonably large chunks of time to, so I might stick with crochet for the time being (at least till the next couple of blankets are finished).

I always want to make a quilt, but the time commitment always puts me off! They do look brilliant; what are the group going to do with the quilt afterwards? Perhaps you should hold a quilting bee with them and see if you can make a quilt in a weekend?
ReplyDeleteIt's been lovely making it with a group - and has real helped me understand the process. We're still discussing what to do with it ...
Deletea group quilt is a lovely idea, I tried to start one with a group I used to go to, but it didn't come off, perhaps I'll try and organize an online one x
ReplyDeletedon't feel put off making one of your own, they do take time, but they don't need to be rushed x
An online one sounds like a great idea. I'm definitely going to make my own - but I think I'll wait till a couple of other things are finished first (I may have said this before about new projects!)
