Thursday Drop-in, Friday Meeting night for August, Canberra Craft & Quilt Fair
This is a busy week for Queanbeyan Quilters.
Twelve of us attended a two night workshop on quilt-as-you-go techniques with Pauline from Quilters World. We had lots of preparation to do and this made it easy to get sewing and gluing as required for the class.

Soup night this Friday 8th at Letchworth, bring a mug and sit back with some soup, 7-10pm.
Here are a few links, as promised, for the Aussie Hero Quilts (and laundry bags). I can supply fabric if you are short of it. Kay has very kindly offered to quilt them for anyone who makes them. The site has links to information about the composition and size of the quilts and detailed instructions for the laundry bags. There are also lots of photos of quilts already sent out and some useful block instructions.
