First Meeting for April

Several members were away this time, so it was a small meeting, but heaps of fun anyway.
Have I told you that we have a new member?  Ros contacted us some months ago because she wanted to give us some quilt tops and fabrics, and came along to one of the meetings earlier this year.  And she has been coming ever since!  Welcome to our group Ros.

Tania Chahoud from St Ambrose School, visited again today to pick up a quilt for a very special person.  If you remember, she came to a meeting a month or so back, when she took some quilts for donation.  She sent through some photos of the family to which these were given, and I have permission to share them with you.

This is Kiara - she is 17 and has spent way too much of her life in hospital...

 
And her brother and sister Brianna and Jabriel.

 
Don't the kids' smiles tell the whole story?
  
 
After a short meeting, we had show and tell.....
 
Bev quilted the next 5 quilts.  This was made by Anne.
 
 
The four central blocks in this one were a donation from Friday Quilter friend Di Z, the rest of the top was completed by Dasha.


Jill made this quilt from fabrics donated by Stitching Hearts friend Julie A.

 
The next two were donation quilts.


 
Great work Bev!!
 
Cheryl made this one, quilted by Evelyn
 
 
Cheryl also made this one


Ros brought in a donation made by the Wattlegrove Quilters.

 
Helen made a bunch of beanies, a scarf and a shawl.


And a couple of flannel wraps.


 
Jill made this little quilt after raiding the "brown box" in the Stitching Hearts cupboard.  Quilted by Dasha

 
And that's it for now folks.  See you next time.

  1. The children's smiles are worth all the fun and frustration of making quilts for them. Excellent work everyone. ;^)
