On a lovely warm evening, members came together to enjoy a talk by Trish Grammer, who runs Fabrica Trading Station, importing beautiful and colourful Shweshwe fabrics from South Africa. Trish explained how she came to make her first quilt, which she displayed at the meeting, and a little about the history of Shweshwe fabrics in SA. She had brought along a good selection of fabrics for purchase, as well as other items she sells.
We also shared a supper, our usual way of celebrating the end of the summer holidays together, with members having brought a huge selection of delicious food, both savoury and sweet.
There were also some lovely quilts in Show and Tell:
