Before I went away last week I went into Sydney city to take two lovely Kiwi ladies on a tour of local quilt shops. They were wonderful company and though we’d never met before we got on like a house on fire. We visited The Quiltsmith, Logans and Calico and Ivy and then I dropped them outside Morris and Sons so they could check out the embroidery goodies in there. As a “Thank you” for showing them around they gave me this lovely apron made by one of them. Isn’t it a clever pattern The fabric shows a Kiwi flower but I don’t know the name, I’m sorry. It also has a badge of the Kapiti Coast Quilters on the top.
Some lovely Kiwis

The fabric with the triangles on the far left looks really interesting. Any plans for it yet?
Hi Annette
I used some of it in the incomplete whirligig. I’m planning a purple and teal quilt and so hope to use this one there.
Cheers

i love the batik on the right… I have a tiny bit of it in my stash somewhere!
It sounds like a lovely day out for all. The apron is lovely, the flower is the Pohutakawa and the Kapiti Coast is about a half hour or so from where I used to live so I know it well. Gee I might even have heard of your visitors.
