SWF Patchwork Pals - Saturday 8 November 2025

We had a lot of completed “show and tell” items this month.  Lots were for the “I Spy Trail” that takes place on Sat 22 November around SWF when the Xmas lights are turned on.  The I Spy Trail items will be going into different shops and a leaflet is being made up for those on the hunt!

Sue Edwards has finally managed to frame all her Spring, Summer, Autum and Winter embroideries.  They look absolutely fabulous and so realistic, a true work of Art! 

Julie finished her workshop cushion, 90 degree triangles.  It looks brilliant and so cheerful! 

Julie has decorated a pair of wellies with patchwork ready for part of the I Spy trail!  They look such fun.

Pat Robson did these boots!  Took a lot longer than expected, but again, great fun (although Pat did get very sticky fingers!)

Pat has had her Cockerill framed, such an unusual frame, but so effective with gold distressing on the edges too.  Love the lock, key and hinges, brilliant touch!  Take a closer look at the stitching on the Cockerill too, up close it looks fantastic.

Pat also made this enormous Father Xmas as a door stop for the Railway Station - the start of the I Spy Trail (this is when the Xmas lights will be turned on in the Town).

Germaine embroidered this Trainer especially for the I Spy Trail.  Up close, again, the work is so intricate and well executed.  Well done Germaine!

Joy brought along her Faux Glass Wreath from a workshop she did at Alex Waylett’s with Melanie Missing (Mellymade Designs).  Very effective and adaptable.

Julie finished off her Owl cushion, but I think he’s got his eye on her!!

Sue put together the Log Cabin blocks she was making into a bag to put her embroidery in to keep it clean, works really well!
