Times Spent Sewing: May 2015

Hi ladies its been a while since I have blogged .

Our AGM was in March and our new president is myself ( Jenny Morris)
Gail Clark is the communication officer and Ros Phillips is the treasurer.

Last month we made some armchair caddies . Thanks to Jo W for running the workshop.

Thanks Jo ... what a great range and beautiful embroidery done by the ladies.

We are meeting on Sunday the 17th for our May meeting as well as going on our retreat to Staceys at the Gap on the 29,30& 31st of May. Its still not too late if you want to come along cost is $275 . But we would need to know by Sunday .

This Sunday we are making blocks for our Charity Quilt for "Chics in Pink" we will raffle it and donate the proceeds toward their breast cancer cause. This group has assisted local ladies in their fight to recover from breast Cancer.

There will be a Quilts in the Paddock Day on October 17th 2015 at 10.00am at Lorelle Dillons on Cemetery Road. We are having a display of our quilts and raffling our charity quilt.

In August we are planning a two day at home retreat at the Golden Age Centre Goondiwindi. We will be having a tutor. She will be doing a range of blocks . I have included some photos . I think they are pretty cool. You can make runners, cushion covers or a quilt whatever you want. You can also use your own fabric or order a kit.
