We enjoyed our day so much, we decided to make this the inaugural meeting of the Cassilis Quilters Guild... to be a bi- monthly (is that every 2 months?) event....So why not join us next time....all welcome...you just have to find Cassilis!



'Plough Inn to Cassilis' was the venue.... a quaint little cafe owned by my sister-in-law,  Linda and  open Friday, Saturday and Sundays.









the Cassilis Pub- unfortunately no longer open




















Finally...my SAL project for May....finished in the nick of time

A Day in the country

The Cottage on the Hill at Nundle held an airing of the quilts today.
Over 100 quilts were on display and people came from miles around to be impressed by them.
It was just wonderful to drive out along the road and see a paddock of quilts....surrounded by inquisitive cattle!
Kerry did a stunning job hosting a biggest morning tea for the cancer council too. Yummy scones jam and cream.....and good old country hospitality.
Hopefully she raised lots of money!

packing up...the end of a fantastic day


Hope everyone gets very spoilt on Mothers Day.
Till next time
