Today some of us got together for an impromptu extra quilting day. Between us we have worked wonders.
Again we had a fabulous lunch together and a delicious afternoon tea.
Carol quilted and bound Jeanette's Beacon Lights. Only the hand hemming and the label to do now.
Elaine started attaching borders to Linda's Circle Quilt #1.
Betty joined all the strips together on the strippy quilt started in July. In the process the sewing machine inherited from Ruth is now up and running. So if you can use a knee lever machine it is up and ready.
Karen finished the borders on Jenny's Twister quilt then we all finished the day by sandwiching it and tacking ready for quilting next time.
Jenny would have been with us but called in sick, she has the flu. Get better soon Jenny.
At our October weekend we need to bind the twister quilt then label it and another one will be finished. Soon we'll have enough quilts finished to be able to draw another block.
Thanks for a wonderful day together.
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.
