Future meetings.

These are the plans for the next few months meetings. Members are free to choose to bring their own work to continue with or join an activity.

March:  A design workshop called  "50 shades" details of what to bring have been emailed out.

April:  Soy Wax technique workshop materials needed will be sent out in March.

May:  Exploring embellishments on our quilts.

Early warning that the August meeting will be on 18th August rather than the usual second Monday because of the FOQ.

February meeting

We had a great day yesterday. Working on our own projects and getting lots of tips and guidance from members on machine quilting. Thanks for the very generous sharing of ideas and techniques.
