Today at quilting we were small in number but our members have been busy sewing during the week as there were plenty of items to see at Show & Tell. Thank you to everyone who finished their assigned project for the raffle quilt and returned them. The raffle quilt is coming along and I have taken a few photos of some completed blocks. Heather stitched the appliqué onto the centre block of the quilt and it looks amazing - sorry no photos at this stage you will have to wait! I am looking forward to the next stage of working together on the raffle quilt and watching the one dimensional design turn into something visually eye catching.
