Southern Quilters Finishing School

Firstly I had Judy C from Talbot come over on Saturday and sewed borders on quilts for us and also took home 2 sets of blocks to make into tops. Thanks for giving up your Saturday Judy.

Along came a courier and delivered this huge box of 23 quilts returned from Lyn at Mildura. We have already bagun putting on the bindings. Lyn advises me she is now onto top # 28 oh boy. thanks again Lyn.

I received another package from Southern Quilters Finishing school today with lots

of lovely blocks. These have already been sorted into groups for sewing into tops. Mixed with some of our blocks that we already have.
In the package was a letter as follows:
Dear Wilma,
In addition to the orphan blocks that the members of Southern Quilters Finishing School have contributed to the people of Carisbrook we recently held a Sale Day of all kinds of items as a fundraiser. The money enclosed with the remaining blocks ( A cheque for $210.80c ) is as a result of that day.We would be pleased if this miney could go towards helping the quilters of your districtback on their sewing feet again.
With best wishes from the members of Southern Quilters Finishing School.
What a wonderful thought. Please convey our special thanks to all your members.
