My beginner quilting class at church has made quilts to decorate the new Early Head Start building. Babies through 3 years old will enjoy the walls decorated with the quilts we have made. The beginner quilting class called The Cornerstone Quilters started July 2010, since then we have created seven quilts. We have used the advantage of cute quilt panels for the centers and all class members made the same block to surround the panel. Saturday classes have been for layering and construction techniques. Now we are machine quilting, some are not comfortable with that yet. Four quilts are complete, three still to be layered and quilted.
Our last quilt is to be used as a floor quilt, we are using all our orphan blocks etc. It is turning our very cute and will post pic of it next,
Enjoy our Cornerstone Quilt Show!
Happy Quilting,
Colleen
Our first quilt 4 Patch and Double 4 Patch, the center has our Cornerstone Quilters name and FPC for First Presbyterian Church and the Christian fish symbol. Class members name are embroidered on individual patches. 14 members in all.
Thoses are pretty quilts and I like useing the panels....makes for a much faster quilt but doesn't take away from it. Trish
