The last QSG of NSW event for the year will be a talk at The Glover
Cottages on Saturday the 11th of November.
Since coverlets have appeared for the first time in the 2017 Sydney Quilt Show, we have asked noted quilt teacher and maker of coverlets, Linda Butcher, to talk to us about the history of this popular bed and wall covering and to show us examples of her work, including her recent prize winning 'By Night and By Day' coverlet below.
Linda hopes to bring along some other quilt teachers' coverlets and there will be a Mary Jane Hannaford coverlet to see up close.
Please bring along your own coverlets for show and tell – especially any that you have entered into quilt shows.

Circular Quay train stations. Entry is $5 for Quilt NSW Guild members and $10
