Measured in chatter, laughter and friendly faces Flowerpatch Quilters exhibition was a resounding success, enjoyed by not only the visitors, but members as well. The exhibition is on two floors and upstairs we usually have a themed room where we can show quilts, etc. in a different way. This year's theme was "Our House" so let me take you on a tour.
We enter by the back door straight into the kitchen ......... hungry anyone?
On to our cosy living room where you can enjoy reading a patchwork book in your favourite armchair.
Next to the nursery and the bedroom
And finally the bathroom ..... I just love the polyester wadding soap suds in the bath!
With members sewing at tables and fabric for sale, it all made for a lovely atmosphere and it was a joy to be there.
Lots more exhibition pictures next time - Anita x
Flowerpatch Quilters exhibition is in full swing and I really want to show you our charity quilt which we are raffling for the Samaritans in Cornwall. Each block, and the pieced borders, have been made by different members. After sewing them all together the quilt was passed around for quilting. The raffle is being drawn on Saturday afternoon and needless to say I've bought lots of tickets!
Flowerpatch exhibition just wouldn't be complete without ........... flowers!
These are just some of the beautiful floral displays by Maggie, Mary, Jenny and Janet. Every year they excel themselves devising wonderful arrangements to complement and enhance the quilts. In fact some people come to the exhibition just to admire and photograph the flowers!
The exhibition is on until Saturday 8th August at Central Methodist Church Hall, Launceston, PL15 8RD. Everyone is welcome, entrance is just £2 and there's CAKE!
Happy Quilting - Anita
