This year has been a bit of a slow start. Our scheduled meeting for January was a public holiday, Our February meeting saw only the die hards attend as we were in the midst of a huge storm with torrential rain and huge winds. Thanks to those ladies that braved the weather.

 

Our March meeting has been planned since last year. We are having PURPLE DAY to coincide with Epilepsy Australia's Purple Day to raise awareness and funds for epilepsy.

We have planned a day of purple. We ask that you come dressed in purple and bring a plate of food, possibly purple but it doesn't have to be. It will be a general sewing day with some added fun with spot raffles, a guessing competition and other fun things.

 

We also have our main fundraising raffle of a beautiful quilt made by the members of the guild.

 

(75" x 75")

 

Tickets to win this awesome quilt are available at All About Sewing- Charmhaven. (Australian residents only) It will be drawn May 25 2013

 

We hope you can join us on Sat March 23 for this fun day at All About Sewing 9am - 2pm

August Sew Day...

On Thursday  we had about 14 ladies come to our Thursday sew day. It was fantastic to see so many there. We had already decided that we were sewing blocks for a charity quilt that we are making. Leanne had the blocks cut ready to go. Everyone sewed at such a fast pace that 2/3 of the blocks are already done. Well done ladies!!! 

We ran low on a few pieces so Leanne has cut more and they will be at All About Sewing to pick up if you wish on Thursday Sept 1.

We need to get the blocks done ASAP so we can start selling tickets for the raffle to be drawn at the Sew-a-thon on October 29.

Thanks Everyone for such a great effort.
