Snake Gully Quilters are a group of girls in and around Muswellbrook in the Hunter Valley.
From memory this is my third year of travelling there for a weekend of fun and laughter with some sewing thrown in.
My gracious host Liz feeds and waters (read wine) me and I always come home with vegies or plants from her garden. A really lovely lady!

Over the two days we were tackling my Rolling Star quilt and a circular table centre.

They are a very productive group with a fantastic sewing room and a great bunch a gals.
I'm booked in again for next year too.
Now for the give away as it's my 251st post. Who would have thought I'd get this far. I'm finding it hard to make the time lately to post here when Facebook is so quick and instant.
I'm giving away my original circular table centre taught at Snake Gully.
It measures 30" across and was foundation pieced and machine quilted.
It has giant ric rac around the outside edge and is made from a French General range of fabric.
To enter please leave me a comment - Australia only for postage reasons - and I'll select a winner next Monday.
Wish me luck for Saturday. My darling son is getting married and I'm to walk the 2 1/2 year old flower girl (my granddaughter) down the aisle before the bridesmaids. I'm pretty sure I'll be carrying her!

ReplyDeleteWhat a wonderful job that will be! When my husband and I got married our son was 2 and mostly stood with us during the ceremony. It was so special. I hope you have a most wonderful day. Thank you for your very generous giveaway. It looks lovely. I have some French general fabrics waiting for their turn to be cut up into a quilt.
