If you can organise yourself to pack up your machine and fabric and sewing accessories and patterns and get them to the Women's Centre on the second Saturday of the month, you will have a wonderful day sewing happily with a small group of like minded people. You bring your own refreshments, except cold water, tea, coffee and milk is provided. Cost is $5. (Some ladies have been known to bring hand sewing, or even nothing at all, to just sit and chat and admire the work that is being done.)
Different ways of sewing things and helpful hints are always on show.
Here are some photos of some of the projects from the last Saturday sewing day. (Thanks Di for taking the photos.)

Teen's beautifully precise tablerunner with additionally precise quilting. (This girl unpicks if the seams are 1/16" out!) |

Some Australian wildflower machine embroidery out from under Elaine's machine. |
|
Brenda's colourful little quilt from some BomB blocks she won last year. (Unfortunately, not enough to make a quilt, so a bit more tiny square sewing was necessary for Brenda.) |
|
Del volunteered (or was nice enough not to say "no" when asked) to piece the butterfly blocks together from the last BomB. |
