What We Do
We have a varied programme of activities.
We may have talks from speakers of local, national or international renown in the fabric art world. We hold two or three daytime workshops a year. On these occasions, our Wednesday evening meeting may be followed by a workshop on the Thursday when the Speaker becomes the Tutor.
We aim to make these days fun events as well as learning experiences.
We may have project evening meetings when we cut and sew, developing practical skills and sharing knowledge and techniques. At most meetings we have a ‘Show and Tell’ when members may show their finished projects so that we can all get pleasure and inspiration from their efforts before the items are given to the recipients.
We make quilts for the Project Linus initiative, which are donated to children in distressed circumstances. In between times, we may put on exhibitions and displays to promote our patchwork and quilting. We may also group together to attend exhibitions further afield. It can be quite exciting to see fellow members’ quilts on display – or your own!
