Variable Stars Quilters

                                    

                         " The Quiltie Ladies"

 

As a group, the Variable Star Quilters have grown together while maintaining their quilting individually. With strong roots in tradition, each proceeds at her own pace down the path to creativity.  In every activity each seems to find the job best suited for herself,  within her own level of expertise. This diversity is what bonds them together and offers support along with inspiration          

Scraps of Wisdom

Happy sewing

Patchworkers:
Patchworkers are a different breed.
The things we hope for, the things we need.
We wish for fabric to finish that row.
We sometimes wish our guests would go.

We wish all day for that time to be
That special time - that time for ME.
Each needle is threaded, the colours arrayed.
Scissors and pattern have been carefully laid.

Now we relax, this is our pleasure.
Stitching this piece of soon-to-be- treasure.
We always ignore that mental warning -
Stitching all night makes it rough in the morning.

But times' unimportant, we don't heed the clocks.
We just need fabric and a sewing box.
Our project awaits us, now we proceed,
This must be Heaven - what more do we need!
