Thank You

 Thank-you to Nillumbik Council for the Quick Response Grant to Community Quilt which allows us to buy the wadding for 120 quilts to give to...

Well our February Guild meeting started our meeting year with a bang. Carol brought her Pop-Up shop "Sewn and Quilted" with many treasures; and gave a delightful talk and trunk show on how she got into patch working and running a shop.
Many of us found ourselves unable to resist the temptation of a purchase at her shop. Carol also runs many classes. To find out more look at the website  www.sewnandquilted.com.au , ring 9877-1664 or visit the shop at 92 Whitehorse Rd, Blackburn between 10-4 from Tues-Sat.

The January workshop in ice-dying was a great success - some great clothes are being worn, one large piece has been used as quilt backing, and there are some other beautiful pieces floating around. There have been murmurs that members want yet another "dye-along"!

Looking ahead to our March Guild meeting on Thursday 15th March, we have as Guest Speaker, Veronique Diligent from the Applique Guild. As well as representing the Applique Guild, Veronique, as you may expect, does amazing applique work. One of her quilts is hanging in The Quilt Shop Eltham (it's the Chook Quilt). She will be teaching classes both there and at Sewn and Quilted.
We will also be having a Pop-Up shop from Bustles and Bows in Warrandyte.
