Hello big wild world of blogging.

My name is Sharon are I am an addict to all things patchwork. I am hoping you can help me in raising funds for my local pre school and breast cancer. Like all committees our PreSchool needs to raise funds to operate for the community. So while at Cottage on the Hill on my regular Tuesday class I seen fabrics for Breast Cancer and came up with the idea of helping others while also helping ourselves. So we are asking for your help. We are having a Murrurundi Pre School "Quilts for as Cure" using the Quest for a Cure fabric, Quilt Challenge.


The challenge is to make a quilt with the quilt top to be made up of at least 70% of the Quest for a cure fabrics or Northcott Fabrics as they all have a percentage goes to Breast Cancer. The quilts will be exhibited on October 4th & 5th to the public in our RSL Hall in Murrurundi. The quilts will be judged by the public by secret ballot voting on the Saturday. Saturday Evening we will have a cocktail party to announce the winners.There will be 3 quilt section an Open, Professional and Beginners and also a small items section. Cushions, dolls, Etc
Entry for the quilts is $20 and Entry into the small section $10. This money will go the Breast Cancer. I am still busy seeking sponsors prizes and gifts and will keep you posted as they came in. If you have any suggestions I would appreciate them.



Look forward to hearing from you



Happy Patchworking
