Polly asked

Polly asked us to show & tell what we are stitching, so I'll go first,
and I hope this works. If not I'll figure another way. This is hand
piecing and has been very calming for me during this past week.

Gorgeous. I love the way the stars appear and recede; sort of like the
'real' ones. Polly

That didn't make any difference to me. Maybe it is just for 'Facebookers'

I put up pics a few pics in my Webshots album, look at the ones with
the 'new' postings.

There's my "finally finished" log cabin quilt (it just took 5 years),
a applique heart top (still have to quilt it) and completed a quilted
purse ready for spring.

For 'regular' sewing I've made three spring/summer tops so far, have
been having a lot of fun with the serger and cover stitch machine on
stretchy ITY (Interlock Twist Yarn) fabric.

Hi everyone
I have just finished two projects. We are in the middle of a warm
summer here so I am just getting back to quilting for the year. The
first photo in the link is my entry to our Guild's 2012 Challenge.
Topic: Surfboard using the same size template. Total size of quilt to
be exactly 24x48". I found the image in the Great American PinUp
book. My husband thinks it is terrific [what man doesn't like a pin-
up girl?]. Reading the book yesterday to acknowledge the original
artist, I see it is Joyce Ballantyne, the artist of the original
Coppertone ad in the the '50s of the girl and the puppy pulling her
shorts/swimsuit. The project was great fun, and I learnt a new
technique for the background out of Robbi Joy Eklow's book, Free
Expression. with fused applique. Anyone else tried this?
The second project was a completed in a day and a bit, a basket liner
for my flat basket that I take to quilting, which is also good for
transferring comestibles here and there. The pretty cupcake fabric
took my eye.

What incredible skill you have, Bronnie. I especially admire your
readiness to try new techniques and work to make extraordinary pieces.
I wonder if anyone else had the same first thought as I did: lady on a
surfboard with shark's teeth very close indeed gg? If you didn't
think of it, the idea for the border was probably subconscious. Fun
though!
Congratulations.
