Quilt Show at Wauchope - 6 May 2013


Our Biennial Quilt Show held from 12 to 14 April 2013 at the Wauchope Showground was an outstanding success, and brought together sewists from far and wide. There were 112 quilts of all sizes on display - and included traditional styles, art quilts and modern interpretations of hand and machine quilting. We were complimented on the variety of quilts on display and the other "bits and bobs" made by Members.



The Show gives us an opportunity to raise funds for selected charities and this year Members chose the Port Macquarie Hospital Breast Cancer Support Unit and the national support group for women undergoing cancer treatment, Look Good ... Feel Better.  Above is a picture of the entry to the Show displaying our 2 beautiful raffle quilts - Circle of Friends and Flower Power.
Each Show we ask visitors to select their favourite quilt and this year we asked Members to do the same. The winner of the Viewers Choice was Wendy Jones and the Members Choice was a quilt by Judy McEwan.

 We would like to thank all Members (and their partners) for their contributions to the Show - be they making quilts, morning teas, helping with set up and clear up, and volunteering their time to make the Show run smoothly.
