Centenary Quilt revealed

This afternoon we had the unveiling and presentation of the Manjimup Centenary Quilt. It was held at the Library/Gallery part of the Manjimup Community Centre.

A good gathering of over 50 people, men, women and girls. There will be an article in our local newspaper, which will make more people in the community aware of it, plus the many visitors to the library and gallery, where meetings and functions are held.



A great group effort from our local patchwork group involving 14 ladies. Also another lady who hand-dyes her own fabrics, she donated a lot of the background fabric.

  5. Susan, it is lovely. I like the way the individual blocks are bordered and "float" over the top. The border with flags, flowers, tree, etc. is really nice, too. What a special quilt!
