Celebrations

A BIG THANK YOU TO ROBYN AND JANICE FOR ORGANISING OUR 

CHRISTMAS DINNER!

,

Once again we enjoyed a very delicious meal at Sunanta's Thai Restaurant.
Presents and raffle prizes kept us all happy and some people got more than their fair share.  I say no more!

The usual people misbehaved as you will see from the photos but after all it is Christmas and time to celebrate friendships, good times and many finished projects!

Thanks to those who have taken on organising roles within the group. Without you we cannot continue.  We must give special thanks to our president, Sheila, who keeps us quite organised and on the right path!

Have a wonderful and safe Christmas and New Year.  

Come back in January with new 

vigour  to finish all those UFOs!

The Night Before Christmas Quilting style

'Twas the night before Christmas,
And the quilts were not made.
The threads were all tangled, the cookies delayed.
The stocking weren't hung, the pantry was bare.
The poor weary Quilter, was tearing her hair.
Stacks of fat quarters, tipped over in streams.
Visions of Log Cabins, had turned into dreams.

When what to her wondering eyes should appear,
But a bus full of quilters with all of their gear.
They went straight to work with just a few mutters,
Sorting and stitching and brandishing cutters.
The patterns emerged from all of the clutter,
Like magic the fabrics arranged in a flutter.
Log Cabins, Lone Stars, Flying Geese & Bear Tracks
Each quilt was a beauty-even the backs.

Her house how it twinkled, her quilts how they glowed.
The cookies were baking, the stockings were sewed.
Their work was all done, so they folded their frames,
And packed up their needles, without giving their names.
They boarded the bus, and checked the next address.
More quilts to be made, another quilter in distress.

She heard one voice echo, as they drove out of sight,
Happy quilting to all and to all a good night!
