Christmas Quilts: A Holiday Tradition
Only a few weeks until CHRISTMAS … and during that time everyone will be busy with decorations, presents, parties and planning delicious food.
Pause … before the “RED, WHITE AND GREEN” takes over and influences almost everything we do?
Pause… and LOOK at this quilt – WOW, think of Pinatas, Pina Coladas, Spanish dancing, Mexican hats, sunshine and twirling skirts, clapping, dancing and GAIETY. It’s hard to sit still while looking at this fabulously colourful quilt.
Where did our talented quilter, Kim start with this project? Top right-hand-corner; perhaps the centre or was there “a first row” she knows, we don’t?
There is a lot of activity happening within our group before Christmas with visits from Charities, quilts to be donated to the Illawarra Refugee Programme, The Assistance Dogs Australia Charity and our ‘own’ Christmas Challenge Block, and our End-of-Year Christmas Party.
However, there is always time to welcome a ‘visitor’ …before OR after Christmas!!
Call in, say ‘Hello’… see the team-in-action, you would be very welcome!
Our ‘new’ members for this year are already very much a part of the Arcadian Quilting team, contributing and sharing their ideas and adding greatly to our friendship circle.
We meet 1st, 3rd and 5th Wednesday of each month at the Community Health Centre, The Glade, Galston. Meetings commence at 9.30am.
For further information please call Carole on 9894 7749.
