MERRY CHRISTMAS TO ALL QUILTERS AND PATCHWORKERS

I hope you all enjoy a happy Christmas with your family and friends.  Relax and try to find some time for yourself... may be a little stitching  ???

Christmas Party and Show and Tell

Hello Everyone 


The blog has been a bit quiet lately too many things to do and people to look after.

Christmas is almost upon us. A time for sharing  and meeting together and remembering how lucky we are that we have the opportunity to patch and quilt and chat with friends from all walks of life. 

I am hoping that all of our members past and present can join us at the Victoria Hotel Goondiwindi on the 28th November  for  our Christmas party and our show and tell. Bring a friend if you like. 
We need some new members. I think it is a 6.30 start but check that with Gail. Everyone pays for their own meal and drinks.

The recycled challenge and our embroidery challenge will be on show so could all members bring them along.  In fact if anyone has a little something special they have made or found bring it along also.

Remember that beautiful little pincushion that Chris bought along to our pin cushion day ...what a treasure.


When I began my quilting journey I never expected to become so captivated by the craft .  I also never expected to make such lovely friends. So bring someone along and get them hooked. 


See you there!
