Chilly June

Winter is certainly upon us now.  The colder weather is certainly a wonderful excuse to dig out some hand sewing, knitting or crotchet and sit by the fire or heater.  Even better is having a quilt to hand bind, something to keep you warm while you are working.

Our quilt show is getting closer now, only three and half months left.  We usually have approximately 100 quilts to display in our show, along with our Challenge Quilts all of which can be voted on by the public.

First Prize Quilt

Second Prize Quilt

This year we once again have two wonderful quilts to win in our raffle.

Both quilts have been made by our members as a group effort.

Our First Prize Quilt is Corliss' Antique Applique Sampler

Our Second Prize quilt is a disappearing hour glass block from Missouri Star Quilt Company in Kaffe Fassett Fabrics.

Raffle tickets are currently available for purchase from our members.


For further information about our quilt show keep an eye on the Upcoming Events section of our Blog or on our Facebook Page

We are also very delighted to have been accepted as the Profile group of 2015 at the Victorian Quilters Show at Jeffs Shed.  We will be exhibiting 16 of our Honour Quilts at the Exhibition.

This month at our Sit n Sew we introduced a junior sewing session as an experiment.... which proved quite successful.  The girls thoroughly enjoyed the session and went home with completed placemat sized quilted mats.
