Welcome to 2026 and an exciting and busy year at quilting.
In case you have missed previous posts in August of 2026 we will be holding our Quilt Show, so each week at quilting Grace will be updating us with information. The Town Hall is booked, lighting has been organised, frames have been reserved, and food for the Cafe is planned. There are so many pieces to the puzzle to bring together with the guidance of our Show Committee and team of coordinators. We need every member to help out by volunteering your time for the show weekend. Many of you have been quietly working at making items for Stage Sales and Waggas and I thank you for your dedication in helping to make our show a success and to be an inclusive part of our local community.
🎉 Happy Birthday 🎉 to the ladies who celebrate their birthday in January - wishing you many happy returns for your special day.
