The Plymouth County Cranberry Quilt Guild and Folded Flowers

Last Thursday the Plymouth County Cranberry Quilters

invited me to present my folded flowers workshop.

They are such a fun group, 

last year we did sashiko mug rugs

 great room for a workshop 

and it's in the Carver Library!

 Having fun folding flowers!

This is Fran - the PCCQ Programs person

think she's having just a little bit of fun!

Just Love this group!

There are a few cross overs into my home

guild - Silver City Quilt Guild,

which makes it great!

And next year they've invited me back to teach

my Sashiko Table Topper!

Inchie Quilts and Folded Flowers workshop for RNQG

Last weekend I had the privilege of teach

a workshop for RNQG

at All About Quilts

for this Inchie Folded Flower Wallhanging

Started out with Inchie Quilts

based on Inchies from

“Inchie Quilts” by Nadine Ruggles

They are CUTE little "quilts"

With focus fabric for the front,

fabric in the back and Tem-Tex in-between,

bead embellished on top,

thread zip-zag binding!!

AND they measure 

1inch x 1 inch!!

Then we worked on the folded flowers

called The Inside Out Flower

from

“Fantastic Fabric Folding” by Rebecca Wat

And Ta-Da! Venora had a folded flower!

A Great time was had by all!!

Inchie Quilt

Spent the week working on a cute little project

an "Inchie Quilt"

They are way too cute little quilt sandwiches

that can be made into all sorts of things!

Using the method featured in

"Inchie quilts" by Nadine Ruggles

and adding my own personal flare

I came up with this 16" Mini Quilt

  It features five "Inchie Quilts"

nestled into the center of folded flowers,

set into a nine patch

with Sashiko and beading,

and surrounded by a piped binding

The directions call for using 40 wt Rayon thread

of course I didn't have any
so went ahead and used 50 wt Aurifil,

which was okay but...
 the Rayon would have given a much
smoother edging on the Inchies.

Next time!!

It was a fun little project!
