23rd April

Hi Everyone,

Today at quilting Grace gave her updated countdown till our Show - 111 days until the big event. It is always lovely to see our members each week but unfortunately not everyone is able to attend, so when Carolyn visited us today she had her bag of 10 baby quilts plus some fabric “scraps” for us to share. To the other ladies who are unable to attend quilting we miss you and hope you will be able to join us again soon.
Once again everyone was busy and a group of ladies pinned and hand tied a Wagga. When a small group gathers together the task at hand proceeds quickly and becomes fun. Jane is making some puzzle balls to be sold at our show - these are ideal gifts for a baby or toddler.

Special mention to Blue Mountains Quilters on a wonderful show last weekend. There was an amazing display of quilts, retail shops to inspire your creativity and a cafe to help you recharge.
