Rainbow Connection Quilters

We started in 2007 with a quilt made one very rainy weekend with friends from across Sydney and across the world connected by patchwork and quilting. Our members have included quilters and novices from far and wide - NSW, Victoria, Western Australia and Queensland (Australia), New Zealand, Massachusetts and Connecticut (USA), N.Ireland, Cornwall, Shropshire and Wales (UK). All our quilts are for charity, either raffled to earn money or donated directly to a nearby charity.

Our first quilt has an owner

Our first Rainbow Connection Quilt (hence the name of our group) has been chosen by a 4 year old boy whose six year old sister has cancer. This was through the 'Quilts for Keeps' program in NSW.

February Patchwork Weekend

Again a wonderful weekend. This time we almost completed our first Mystery Metre Quilt thanks to all those who completed a block or more and helped put it together. Our travellers this time were Mary (Utah) and her sister Helen (Queensland).
