A workshop and a wonky star update

On Saturday Hubertine and I went to a workshop at Dorry’s lovely shop Quilt It & Dotty to learn about the quilt-as-you-go technique which we both want to use for our Jules quilts. I always love going to Dorry’s shop, had not been there is a while, this is one of the first things you see when you enter:

This was my view into the shop during the workshop:

and my view of the floor…love that floor!

Lovely quilts everywhere

The workshop was great, the technique was explained very clearly by Dorry, so we can move forward now with our Jules quilts (as if we don’t have enough to do…)

 

Last week at home I did some more work on Eline’s star quilt:

I decided – rather than keep the blocks separate with solid sashings – to use the sashings in between the star blocks to make more stars. This way there will be an extra row of stars added in between the rows already there. More work, but worth it!

Thanks for stopping by my blog today!
