The Quilters with their Winning Quilts - 2013

(click on the pictures for a closer view)

Here's Wendy with her beautiful Quilt Linen and Lime, which won the viewers choice for 2013.

Wendy described her quilt as follows:

This queen-sized quilt is predominantly made with Japanese Yuwa fabrics of linen, cotton and linen/cotton mix. It was designed by Julie Wallace of the Quilters Barn in Loch Victoria as a block of the month quilt over a 13 month program. It has a fresh, clean style made using the fusible webbing technique and all hand appliquéd with additional borders by moi to personalise it.

Narelle Nutley’s exquisite professional  quilting adds relief, movement and individuality to each block.

At last a quilt for my own bed!!

The Members choice for 2013 was won by Judy and her stunning quilt Vesuvius. 

Here's how Judy described her quilt:

This scrap quilt is my original design using a modified version of the ‘stack and slash’ pattern.

The pattern pieces are arranged to achieve shading from light to dark, with black strips inserted. I over-dyed commercial fabrics to achieve the colours required.

The border and binding are colour-washed to blend with the body of the quilt.

Quilted by Narelle Nutley of Mystral Quilting Services.
