Quay Quilters' first quilts 03

Karen's first quilt was all packed up so she showed the miniature work in progress. Helen's was a lovely sampler quilt made by hand with Susie Corke  and like many of these earlier quilts was extensively handquilted. Now we're in too much of a hurry to go on the next quilt. Mavis took her Houston Stars off the bed to show us - an amazing first effort. Trish's was an double Irish Chain made for her daughter and still wearing well after much use - also lots of handquilting carefully thought out.
