Springwood Community Quilt Show 2015


Springwood are celebrating 10 years of Quilt Shows with their upcoming exhibition next week, and in honour of the event, their Raffle Quilt this year is truly gorgeous. The hand pieced design is based on an original vintage 1930's quilt and is made up of typical 30's (reproduction) fabrics.

'Local' Blue Mountains lady, Rhonda Pearce will be featured as Guest Quilter. Most quilters will know of Rhonda as having owned "Post Office Patchwork" in Glenbrook, and those who witnessed the creation of her Baltimore Classic were unsurprised by her 1st Place in the Professional Applique section, and Viewers Choice Awards at the 2013 Houston Quilt Show. Her quilts are a visual delight.

Rhonda's Quilt Display will be complemented by the usual fabulous quilt exhibition from local quilters, stalls selling craft goodies, and a cafe stop for those needing refreshments.
Please do come to the mountains for a day and support Blue Mountains Rural Fire Service, and Textile Studies at Springwood High School. All will be welcome!
