are you panicking? breathing deeply?
no?
ahh the blessings of being organised, quilts all bound and finished, sale goodies all created and priced, quilt stories all sent off to be printed, challenge done and dusted...........
Yep, it's gonna be another fantastically successful Quilt Show and Sale.
The Quilt Show raffle quilts are the best ever, well yes, I do say that every time, but you have to agree, they are both stunning.
'Celestial Dream' is our 1st Prize raffle quilt, hand pieced and hand quilted, designed by Gwen and coordinated by Gwen, who also did much of the hand quilting.
'Cream Fantasy' is the 2nd Prize raffle quilt, Candlewick embroidered blocks sashed with cream cotton lace. Assembled by Wendy, coordinated by Val who also worked on many of the blocks.
Proceeds from the raffle are being donated to Najidah, a Sunshine Coast support group for women and children affected by domestic and family violence.
If the Quilt Show and Sale isn't excitement enough, it's only 4 more sleeps to our Cottage Winter School. Classes are available to all Cottage members as well as the general public.
Each of the Cottage's 12 groups chooses a tutor and the Patchwork group are so thrilled to have Neroli Henderson, talented art quilter from Melbourne as our tutor. Check out Neroli's Facebook page to see where in the world her work is currently touring or on display and to view her newly created pieces.
