Evelyne Michaud: This is my carpenter star quilt all finished. I really like the piano border on it.. It was quilted by Carol Darou

Evelyne Michaud: I learned how to make curvy log cabin squares and made this Christmas wall hanging from it.

Anna Cornel: Found the paper pieced pattern for this “Tall trim the tree” by C.Edgeton when tidying my sewing room. Originally had planned to make it with a friend. I made one for a Christmas present and was happy with the result so made another for me using antique mother of pearl buttons. I used a thick backing which kept the tree firm enough to decorate it with my most cherished handmade ornaments. No need to water, no shed needles and it rolls up for storage !

Alexis Mongeau: I have been enjoying making Zendoodle quilts this past year. I love the simplicity and the simple colour choices. Also I get to practice all my free motion quilting designs. Not great at taking pictures. The yellow in the 2nd picture is very bright.
