Never tackled mitred corners but they look so neat I am going to give it a go. Thanks Carolyn.

Great description Helen. It took me a while to understand how to do it when I first started and wish these visual instructions had been available then!

This is a great deal and never realised that the Guild did this. Unfortunately I don’t have grandchildren yet or young relatives that I could encourage.

Lovely finished Boro piece Denise. What I particularly love about Boro is the ripples you get (front and back) which adds fantastic surface design. Your photos show this beautifully.

Oh gosh I forgot that one Sue! I have to go down two flights for a drink so it is a really good break when I go for one (unless my husband is kind enough to bring me one up.

So nice to see young people entering the craft as well as the FOQ. Quite inspirational and unique work. Thanks Helen.

Thanks Helen. Shaking out and relaxing is definitely good for the creativity.

What is more important the quilt or the quilter?
When I was little I once pulled and pushed my arm around my neck and back as far as it would go and then, as I showed my mother what I could do, I told her it hurt…

Good piece of advice! My hubby works in H&S and I do try and position myself ‘properly’ before sewing but it’s so easy to get hunched up, especially with FMQ. But I find it goes better if you ‘shake it out’ and relax!

I totally agree with your comments Ruth, and one thing I would add is to have a drink. It only needs to be a glass of water, or G & T if that is what you would like. I frequently get so engrossed that I forget to have a drink – could go 3 or 4 hours….. It also makes you get up and walk around – so two plusses!!! x
