Today at quilting we continued working on our 2026 Raffle quilt. The design wall was set up and finished blocks placed to see the beginning process of the quilt. Kathy bravely asked for feed back on colour choice and positive suggestions were made from members. It is encouraging to see the quilting develop throughout the day with colour contrasts and design refinements.
Another Community quilt has been completed and I must say Robyn Ja. did an amazing job. This quilt is all hand pieced and hand quilted. Thank you Robyn for all your hard work and now we are looking for a special place to donate this quilt where it will be cherished and loved.
