Great Work Ladies

THIS IS A REPOST

I was warned by Blogger that this post had been deleted because it contravened the rules & regs.  (What??)  Then suddenly they informed me that it was restored, but in Draft format.  So I am reposting but it gets posted with today's date.  Sorry!

Every time I go to a meeting, I am amazed and inspired by the wonderful work the ladies do, and our last meeting was no exception.

We have been contacted by Cystic Fibrosis Australia requesting a quilt for raffle in fund raisers to be held in May and August.  We are hoping to invite a representative from that organisation to speak to us and to pick up the quilts. We agreed to give 1 quilt now - a red and white one, as that is their colours.
10 children’s quilts and knitted beanies and scarves & booties, to go to Ronald McDonald House. 11 laps to be stored for later.
And here are the lovely quilts which came today:
With this one, Bev rescued some orphan blocks which had been donated, added a couple more and completed the quilt:

















A little collection of knitted scarves and baby booties:


A flannel quilt and some baby wraps:




Evelyn completed another Wonky Log Cabin quilt from blocks made by the members. These were so much fun to make, and a great use for bits and pieces from stash.  She still has 30 blocks left, so you will see another quilt in the next few weeks.






Wasn't it a great bunch of quilts today?
