Round robin, quilted cards and painting

Lots of small bits of creativity going on around the big project.  First of all, the round robin top.

I am so delighted with how much thought and effort the participants put into these blocks.  Each has a little narrative describing how they reached their designs, and i'll get those typed up at a later date.  Our quilt show is in October this year, so I'll need to get cracking with this one very soon.

Also for our Quilt Show, I'm on a card-making marathon to raise funds for the group.

I'm also getting more confident with the painting course, this week, painting in tones on a coloured ground.  In the studio,
