Teacher For A Night

Or three, really.

I'm filling in as teacher for a patchwork class for three weeks. Tonight I took along a few quilted items to show the students:
Some of these I've shown here before, such as the hottie cover and the potholder closest to the bottom. In the background is my "friendship star" couch quilt, which I made quite a few years ago. On the left is my uneven log-cabin Christmas wreath wall hanging. I worked out the pattern from a photo seen on the internet, and then after I'd made it I discovered I actually had the pattern in an old Burda magazine. The yellow daisy is another potholder I made earlier this year, which I don't seem to have blogged. The block design is "Daisiez"by Jan Mullen. For this potholder I used one layer of the Thermolam batting, and one of cotton, which seems to be a good combination. I'm making a couple more potholders with the same batting combo. (Pictures to follow).
