Busy patchworkers continued
We could still be basking in the glory of the positive comments we have received about the exhibition; however, it is back to work for us all.
We recently took twenty-eight quilts to Melbourne for the Very Snuggly Quilt program.
This is a program run by Vic Quilters.
Quilts are donated to the Royal Children’s Hospital for repeat inpatients and their siblings.
These quilts have a lasting impact not only on the recipient but also on the recipient’s family.
A happy, lasting memory from a difficult time.
On Saturday, we will host the “Biggest Morning Tea” to raise funds for cancer research.
We invite you to come along at any time throughout the day to see what we are doing and to have a cuppa.
The kettle will always be hot. We meet at the old limestone school at the west end of Austin Street.
There will soon be a sign at the entrance.
We now happily share the building with the Historical Society.
New members are always welcome.
You do not need to be a patchworker, come along with any of your craft work (even bring your mending) or just come for a chat.
