Cut and Splash Workshop

Thank you so much Gunnel and Helen for a lovely workshop yesterday.

It was good to start a workshop and be told that you don't have to be really, really accurate. Some are just naturally accurate, but lots of us gave a sigh of relief. Planning is important, but with this technique you have no idea how it is going to look until you finish the block.

It was a beautiful day and at lunchtime we were able to sit in the sun and eat our lunch, we were then back at our machines and furiously cutting.

There were 16 ladies doing the workshop and every one's blocks looked so different, it will be great to see the finished quilts.

Send in your photos as soon as you can
