I visited Snake Gully Quilters in Muswellbrook again last week for a weekend workshop.
Two projects were happening - the Hatchet quilt...
...and Chocolate Stars
We had a lot of fun in a great venue - sheep all around and great hospitality. Thanks again for having me Liz!
Show and tell's always good with this Jacobean Star of Roz' from the last workshop ready to be quilted.
Matiah is the youngest member of the group - year 6 at school - but that hasn't stopped her sewing progress. Using Nan's Bernina she's in the group's yearly challenge ...
and loves foundation piecing! She's a member of the NSW Quilters Guild and we might even see something from her in next year's show. Keep up the great work Matiah - we need lots more young sewers just like you.
For all of us who can't get to the Quilt Study Centre in Nebraska here's a link to their on-line exhibitions - well worth a look with lots of amazing quilts.
And don't forget Epping Quilt Show is on this weekend
Epping Quilters 30th Anniversary Show, Don Moore Community Centre, North Rocks Road, Carlingford NSW. Hours: Fri 11am-7pm, Sat 9am-5pm.
