We met last week for the second July meeting, and it was a big one. Most of our members were there, and we also had a lot of quilts donated to us. The first thing we do is have lunch, and when its a big meeting, we have to push several tables together so that we can all fit around it. It was a bit like herding cats last week - everyone wanted a chat.
We delivered our first bundle of quilts to Allowah, an organisation based in Dundas supporting kids with complex needs for over 70 years. They were kind enough to post a lovely thank you to our page on Instagram and on Facebook. Do search for them and take a look at the wonderful work they do. It's always good do know the quilts we make are so well received.
We had a large bundle of quilts donated to us for distribution to our outlets. First up were quilts from the Sit and Sew group at Hobbysew. These have been made by our regular donors Robyn and quilted by Mary:
And this one was made by Sandra:
The next three were donations from Toni:
The next three quilts were donated by ladies from the Friday Quilters. The first two were made by Lyn, from a kit we had sent to us by Susan U from Pittsworth. Lyn has actually made three quilts from the fabric in the kit. he third is being quilted, and I will be able to show it to you when it is complete.
And this one was made by Cheryl.
Here are the woollens. They will be welcome at the moment, as its mid winter and the nights have been chilly lately.
The rest of the quilts were made by our members.
That's it for today. Thanks for stopping by to support our little group.
