Hope someone else will post some of their craft - would be good to keep a craft thread going.

Klarry - how about some pics of your cards?

Gorgeous quilts Rosie. I want to learn how to do stuff like that.

This is my "masterpiece" 😛 It's just bits of fabric I liked plonked together and I have no idea what Im meant to do next. Probably some kind of backing? Completely clueless.

That is really pretty.

Just some wadding and backing and you have a quilt!

I love the colours

I love the flower blocks, very pretty! some wadding, either cotton, bamboo or wool and a nice backing and quilt diagonally and in the ditch?
I would probably add a border first, using either a coordinating fabric or one of the ones already there.
The best quilts are the ones we do because we like the fabric prints!:-x

Thanks Rosie and Karen. I've kept back some material to do a border so that's next on my list. Then I think I'll take it into a quilting shop near me and ask for tips on how to finish it.

Hopefully soon I'll be able to post pics of the finished product!

Looking forward to seeing it.

This quilt is one made by the same group of crafty people with some extra ones, I think Rosieglen, Norti, and ? can't recall who else? anyone?

These were already in my photobucket.

I love those. The patterned background fabric sets them off beautifully.
