Once a month we sew together for several hours, either on community quilts or our own. It’s a good time to consult with others, or find help with something we’re stuck on. Sometimes we pass a quilt on to someone else to work on, or we collaborate to baste quilts on large tables (no-one’s favourite part of quilting, or prepare them for a long arm quilter. Sometime we just chat, drink tea or coffee, eat together, or look at fabric, rearrange the stash or have a bit of a sort and clear. We’ve been doing it for more than twelve years now, so it must be working. Here are some of the things we did recently …

One of two wonky tree quilts made from
the blocks made at the AGM … |

Both now added to our community collection. |

Noelle made this large quilt some time ago,
and it has found a home with a Lismore family
affected by the floods. |
