SAVE THESE DATES in 2015

Workshop weekends have been booked for 2015 at RFH on Gregory (Ruth Fairfax House, Gregory Terrace, Brisbane).

March 21 & 22 will be just when the craft show is on so combine the two while you are in Brisbane.

November 14 & 15  will be a chance to do something lovely for Christmas.

NOVEMBER 15 & 16, 2014, another workshop is booked and will probably be about stars.

JELLY ROLLS - UNROLLED

At the recent workshop held at RFH in Brisbane a variety of colourful rolls of pre-cut fabric were put on tables. Two days later these strips were forming quilt tops and were almost ready to quilt.
The beginners class was an exercise in accurate cutting and sewing whereas the advanced class was very challenging - there was quite a bit of rearranging of strips.

 Everyone had their own table and there was plenty of room for ironing.
 Discussion on the placing of blocks in the advanced class
 Pretty colours for a new baby in the beginners class
 Margaret with her sunshine coloured strips.
 Hoping they have it sorted...at last
Bernie brought this magnificent quilt for show & tell.
