Although the cool weather has kept a few members away, the girls have been busy doing an assortment of projects, some with their sewing machines and others with hand sewing.

We all look forward to the ‘show and tell’ part of the day to keep us enthusiastic and give us new ideas.

Gwen McKeon recently showed us her post and rail quilt. This project can be done with either a jelly roll or by using 2 ½ strips from your stash. A quick  and easy pattern, ideal for beginners, and very effective.

Sue Maddison showed her stunning Moonglow quilt. This one is certainly not for a beginner as it is quite challenging. Well done Sue, it’s a beauty.

The Tin Can Bay Quilters meet every Tuesday from 9am to 12 noon, in the Community Hall on the corner of Amity Place and Tin Can Bay Road, Tin Can Bay.

All visitors are most welcome to join us, just bring a cup for morning tea or coffee. Further information may be obtained by contacting our President Louise Hanks on 0488 951 881.
