April Newsletter and Upcoming Guild Meeting

What a fabulous read - sit comfortable, take a break from the sewing machine and have a look at the Guild's latest newsletter.

Idea only - from the alibaba.com website

During our April Guild meeting - Saturday 16th,  12 participants will be taking part in a workshop with Lyn Easton. Lyn is one of our members and has kindly offered to run a workshop for us. Lyn can be seen sporting her Denim Jeans bags and several ladies have asked how they go together.

Lyn will be running this workshop from 10.30am to 12.30pm. Then at our meeting we can look forward to some lovely show and tell and some general information for the rest of us. Check the newsletter, link above, for further details.

You will need to start collecting those old denim jeans from the cupboard or the op shop and look out for groovy details that you can incorporate into the bag design. You will be told what to bring when you book in.

Come along and join us - it is a wonderful day. All visitors welcome.

Happy sewing

March Newsletter and upcoming Guild Meeting

Lovely image from Jenni Scott's website

Go and make yourself a lovely cup of tea and return to read the latest "March Newsletter" - jam packed full of information, lists of upcoming events, the exhibition challenge and show n tell from our February meeting.

Next Thursday, the 17th, is our Guild meeting night, from 7:30pm onwards - come along and join us.

Jenni Scott from Always Quilting is coming to inform us all about thread.
She is a great speaker and will be giving us all sorts of advice about which threads to use where. She does sell the Aurifil Threads and will have them to purchase on the night, although she will not just be talking about her own threads which is great. You can check out her website at Always Quilting.

** Don't forget, we get the extra sewing day on Saturday 19th March, from 10am onwards.

All are welcome - come and enjoy the companionship of fellow sewers - and see a wonderful array of show n tell. It always amazes me the diversity of quilting styles - all beautiful and inspirational.

Happy Sewing
