Group Fun @ Scrub Stitchin'

  Everyone chooses if they want to play or not..........

this year I found a ruler.............almost everyone now has one........

lots of fun pics seeing how long we could get...........its over 300 inchs long when all joined up...........

I did a quick demo on how to use them.........

pretty scary as Janice did a video........OMG

Lynda mixing up a jelly roll.............

Stephanie changed hers a bit and downsized it............

I kept making progress............

like a big long snake...........

playing games...........

Betty worked out a table runner.............

Kylie's such a soft pink, cream and brown............

finally got the strip together.........

its not hard to work with it all stacked up..............

finally Sat night I had the rows cut.......and started adding borders.........

I think this was Raewyn but it brought on a big show and tell.............

the tables has to be moved etc........so we could lay more out for a photo.......

all the different ones being worked on.............

Everyone is always interested in seeing what everyone else is doing.......

it's your own personal cheer squad............

After lunch on Sunday Kylie got her row finished and cut into sections before leaving...........

This was great to do on the dining tables.........

Brenda making great progress considering she only started Saturday morning..............

but we did have it all cut up ready............

I had the rows joined before I left Scrub Stitchin' but had to do the border................

Its looks like zigzag below but above it reminds me a giant ricrac...........

i'll refer to it as the jelly roll ruler or the zigzag/ricrac quilt......that should cover it.........

It will have a red or navy binding depending on what I find to back it with...............

not sure which way I like it hanging.........thinking running crossways........

Kylie came to stay for a few nights and she got her top finished on Monday............she is putting a border on and has found some fabric to match and it is on it's way in the mail.......

Would I do this again............

Absolutely..........

It was fun........you could use a jelly roll or cut your own strips or scraps..........the stronger the contrast the better.........what size well that's up to you...........mine is about 63x65??? sorry can't remember but I pulled out a solid black strip also.........

if you want it bigger or more rows just keep adding more pieces on..........

Not sure if Georgina will be getting that sewing machine back.............

perfect way to finish our day together sewing, champagne and nibbles..........

the one thing the Chookshed is always good for...........

Lianne's pickled cucumbers are amazing..........

Betty made the quince paste and it was sooo good also........

Now all the planning starts for 2025.........

OMG blink and I am sure it will be here..........

In the meantime I will look back at all the photos and enjoy the wonderful memories..........

Catch you later........
