This is likely my last Community Quilt for 2014. It was the last of the most recent bunch I had received, and I won’t get any more until I go to Perth on Dec 19 to pick up a US friend from the airport. As she’s staying with us until Dec 28, I doubt I’ll get any/many of whatever is coming to me in the new batch.
Like the previous quilt, this was a ‘busy’ scrappy quilt of many colours and wonky log cabins. I decided to soften the geometric lines by doing an all-over circular motif in red thread, opting for my ‘open headbands‘, which are lodged in my muscle memory 😉

Love it!!!!! After a washing it will be so wonderfully crinkly!!!!!!
It’s very pretty.,
Thank you so much Rhonda, Love your emails. I don’t suppose you know where I could purchase the HQ Sweet Sixteen Table overlay. I am from Queensland and have had no luck. I have also tried to buy from the USA but they don’t seem to want to ship to Aust
Kindest regards and thanks Kristin
Hi Krissy
You should be able to purchase an overlay via your local Handi Quilter dealer. They should be able to get it in for you. If you’re having no luck with them, I’ve sent you details on my dealer in Perth — she should know someone who can help, or perhaps may be able to help you herself, though postage to QLD will be an issue.
