Fashionable Bursary Recipient

Sarah Armstrong was awarded a $500 bursary from QCWA. She is from Mt Morgan and is studying textile, clothing and footwear at MSIT in Brisbane. She has put the award towards fees, a pattern making text book and purchasing an industrial sewing machine.

We wish her well in her studies and hopefully we will see more of her lovely work in the future.

"Love and Care" project

This project will be adopted in 2011. It is to make a 40" square child's quilt with a pieced front and poly fleece back - no need for wadding. The quilts will be given to a child, as soon as possible when they have been removed from their home by the Department of Child Safety or the Police.
