January 2015

Happy New Year to all . I hope you have all enjoyed you holiday season. I was lucky enough to visit a couple of beautiful patchwork shops while I was in Victoria.  Gayle's Patchwork Emporium in Ballarat  was just beautiful. Gum tree Valley near Timboon was also beautiful. Thought you might like a peek.

Hi Ladies,
After a great start to the New Year with a 2 day workshop we are on our way to a bigger and better year ahead. Thank you to all those who attended and thanks to Gail for getting it organized. Welcome back to Penny and Carol who have been members previously and welcome back Vee from her overseas extended holiday in South Africa.
Sandy and Trish from the Gold Coast work shopped a quilt as you go called (Slash quilt one stepper) and also had a store for people to make use of during the day. A variety of colourful quilts were started and a couple completed.
I have included a couple of photos but you can pop to the blog to see more. http://mcintyrequilters.blogspot.com.au/
