The Quilt
Study Group of NSW talk on Waggas will take place on the 12th of May
at The Glover Cottages, 124 Kent Street in Millers Point. Grace Widders will
talk about the background of that most Australian of bed coverings, the Wagga.
Then along with two of her fellow Hunters Hill Quilters, Doreen and Gil, she
will talk about the history of the fundraising project the group has run for many
years that focuses on selling completed Waggas and kits from the back room at
their quilt show.
