In spite of a heavy snowfall last night we had a successful Open Day at Country Roads Quilters today with many visitors, potential new members and several apologies and requests to attend our February meeting. We had a small display of completed work, Wendy of our local quilt shop, Camelot Crafts, traded for us and we were all stitching and sharing our work with our visitors. There was a good supply of biscuits and delicious marmalade cake available to enjoy with a warming drink for all those who had braved the snowy weather.
I took these photographs during the day but I wasn't able to ask everyone whether they minded them being included on my blog.
If I have shown a picture of you or your work and you would prefer that I remove it from this post please let me know and I will do so immediately.
lovely work and looks like a good time, hope it results in some new members. Yuck to the snow, I have bulbs coming up in the garden.
ReplyDeleteWell done - it looks like it all went very well, despite the weather!
ReplyDeleteLooks like a fun day. Glad the snow didn't affect your plans.
ReplyDeleteCongrats on a successful day. Looks like you had fun and all those quilty things on display are very attractive.
ReplyDeleteIf you think snow is causing traffic problems in the English countryside, why not come and check out the situation in Tokyo! You might just change your mind, ha, ha!
Great that many people turned up. No, snow never stop quilters! I spotted your finished quilt among the finished pieces. Well done Lis
