Second October Meeting

Another productive meeting with a number of donations today.

The lovely ladies from Shepparton Quilters are doing us proud.   The first two quilts are from Betty S:

And no.  I haven't made a mistake.  This one is a twin to one I posted from the last meeting.

This one was made by Barb.  Just look at the gorgeous embroidery on it.  I have included a close up of just one of the stitcheries below it.

And this is the work of Lynn:

Cheryl from Friday Quilters has donated a couple of tops too:

A big thank you to all these ladies for their generous donations.

That's the lot.  Thanks for stopping by and supporting us.

1st October

Jan & Dasha reported that 11 quilts had been taken to Kara Women’s & Children's refuge, together with booties and baby flannel wraps.  And 12 lap quilts were taken to Elsie's Retreat, the new Palliative Care Unit at Gosford Hospital.  Both organisations were appreciative.

Roslyn has picked up 1000 more labels from the fabulous crew at CBon Screen Printing.

We have had news that we have a new sponsor!!  Club Five Dock RSL has been generous in providing us with a Community Grant.  Woo Hoo!  This will allow us to purchase some more rolls of wadding, which of course means more quilts can be made. 

I will open the show and tell with an absolutely gorgeous quilt made by Betty from Shepparton Quilters:

The cute little booties were made by Robin's friend from QuiltNSW, Cathy W. 

This School House block quilt was made from blocks made by several members of the group (sorry, I am not sure who participated - it was rather a long time ago).  Completed by Dasha and quilted by Robin.

What a fun kid's quilt this is!

Bye for now.
