Seachange Quilters are getting ready for their annual quilt show after COVID prevented the event from happening last year.
The show is the group’s major fundraiser for the year and the quality of the quilts are, as always, outstanding.
Seachange Quilters has more than 70 members, with some good enough to have their work displayed and win prizes at major exhibitions.
The group donates around 130 quilts per year to various charities and organisations.
“We use the funds we make to make quilts for others,” committee member Carole Bosna said.
“Today we’re sending 20 quilts off to Bethany.”
Seachange Quilters convenor Heather Grant said the show will feature a large variety of both traditional and modern quilts.
“It’s a women’s friendship group,” she said.
“We’re a friendly group and always looking for new members.”
The show will include Devonshire tea, a raffle quilt worth more than $1000, guessing competitions and the ever-popular trading tables.
Entry is $2 for adults and the show is on March 19 and 20 from 10am to 4pm at the Senior Citizens Hall, Clifford Parade, Barwon Heads.
Seachange Quilters attracts members from Geelong, Bannockburn and all over the Bellarine.
If you are interested in joining the group, call Pat Worsley on 0404-024 542.
