We welcomed Trevor Waldron from Kidney Support Network today who spoke on the importance of kidneys, what we should do to look after them and what the Kidney Support Network does. He was very pleased to accept the two quilts. The large one will be a major raffle prize at an upcoming cent sale and despite him saying his grandkids would just love the smaller one, it will be used for some fundraising to keep the renal patient support in Mackay going.
Brenda returned from her travels today but is already tiring of retelling all the highlights.
Joan has an appointment on Friday morning to become a grandmother.
BomB (Block Of the Month Bonzana) Day today with a simple butterfly pattern that took a lot of explaining. The BomB lady had intended to have 25 blocks made but only managed to bring 15 sets of strips and forgot all about getting photos taken. Let's hope we'll get some sort of butterfly quilt eventually.
Anne won the Badge Draw today and selected a little voucher - of course.
Our first Quilting Bee is this Sunday Monday and Tuesday 26-28 March. But you don't have to come for three days, any time will be fun. Contact Cathy for details.

| This is the BomB from last March. Hard to believe it's been 12 months. It was a pattern Jan had suggested and so it was called Jan's Chevrons. Robyn won the blocks and had to make a few more to get a good sized lap quilt. (And maybe there was a little difficulty in getting all the different blocks to line up? We won't mention it.) |
