Nana,you ladies need a gold medal for your quilt making.They arw absolutely beautiful.The lines,colours and materials all seem to enhance one another.And thank you too threadz for allowing us into your album.Marvellous to say the least.Many moons ago,I think I remember a ladies Skirt made out of mens ties.Around that time,I was more interested in the wearers than the articals they wore.Oh I wish I had the patients to sew.Oh dang it,I think I will just stick to me knitting.Again Thank you ladies for your photo's.

MMN they are just lovely ladies. I admire them so much,, but havent got the artistic touch 
The handles on the bag go so well what a lovely contrast .

Nana, that bag is amazing ......... wonders where that bag of ties from about the last 80 years went.


Like Mona, I love the way you have the contrasting colours. Must go into your photobucket when I have finished these ones.


Kai, your table runner looks as if it could be the same design as Threadz' ones. On my to do list.



Hi ho Hi ho, off back to sew. Can see what's going on from that window too

That one sure is simialr to the one we have,,.
Just love the table runner no 18 bottom of the row with the fantails think it was ,,,, on Threadz one and the ones submitted by Nana awesome as well esp the bag....as with all the others,,
You ladies are so clever,, What a neat way to have R &R (Though I know its exacting work and not easy on the eye sight to do)))))

Thanks so much for sharing
Cheers Kai

Photo I have just downloaded - as you will notice the one on the left isn't finished, it was trimmed before I stitched the binding on.
Hope this works, a while since I have used Photobucket (or is it bookay like Mrs Bucket?)
