11th April

Hi Everyone,

Today we were a busy group with a Wagga being assembled and another being tied. At Show & Tell we viewed some hats, a table runner, cards and bags to be sold at our Show. Iris has made 50 stunning cards which I have no doubt will sell fast, so get in early for your purchases.

Marie K has been named our ‘bag lady’ for the Show as she has completed another 7 bags and we cannot wait to set up the Stage Sales display a couple of weeks before the show to be photographed. The photos will be published on Facebook, Instagram and our Blog to entice you to join us at our biannual Quilt Show.
