Almost 30 BQ members converged on Westbourne Parish Hall for our first ‘Sew for the Show’ day on 24th February. Some sewers worked on a number of projects such as flowers, toilet bags, thread catchers, trays, key ring holders, non slip mats and tote bags which were demonstrated by group members. Others brought along their own projects to work on. By the end of the afternoon, the tables were covered in fantastic offerings. More details to follow in the next newsletter.
5th February was our first meeting this year and we were very happy to have Kim Edith as a speaker. BQ members also brought along some of their fantastic work to show everyone. This included a number of completed selfie portraits as well as a selection of bags and quilts. More details to follow in the next newsletter.
On the 20th January over 20 BQ members turned up at Westbourne Parish Hall where Barbara and Jane from Hayling Piecemakers showed us how to turn our selection of fabrics into fantastic portraits. We look forward to seeing the finished items soon. Hopefully some of them will be on display at the quilt show in July.
