Tidbinbila Blues and Safe Pastures

Saturday was the last day for a class we have been running since last year. The class featured two of my larger quilt designs-Tidbinbilla Blues and Safe Pastures.
Two of the ladies made Tidbinbilla Blues and the rest worked on Safe Pastures.
Gail is pictured here with her version of Safe Pastures. She has added a couple of her own ideas to the quilt which is wonderful. Her new border fabric looked like it might take over the quilt so she added a few heavier features to balance the quilt.


This next quilt is the Tidbinbilla Blues design, as made by Lynne, holding the left corner. I just love her blues and made a quick dash around the shop to see if I could locate myself some of that shade of blue!
Lynnes is now going to be on easy street with only two queen sized quilts to complete in my other classes!



This quilt is Marianne's, but she had to leave the quilt for me to photograph so I don't have a photo of her with her quilt.
Marianne was the lucky witness to serendipity! She chose all but the border fabric when she set out to make the quilt. With strong purples and touches of a gold (almost limey) green, it was going to be a bit of a fluke to find the perfect border fabric. However luck was on her side and we unpacked the perfect border fabric for her just that week and here it is finished!

Last, and not least is Patty's Pastures! Sylvia and I helped her with the fabric choices and so of course it is gorgeous! LOL



I love the way Patty has organ
ised the "random" checkerboard corners into a pattern.
