Quilt Australia

Formerly known as Australian Council of Quilters

Narelle Grieve arranged the first meeting of all the quilting Guilds in Australia in 1992. This led to the formation of the  Quilt Australia (formerly known as the Australian Council of Quilters). Representatives from each State Guild meet biennially for a two day conference to discuss common issues such as valuation, judging, sponsorship, awards, exhibition categories and professional and amateur status. These conferences are held in a different State each year with the host State organizing the event.

After you have visited The New Quilt exhibition at After you have visited The New Quilt exhibition at @hawkesburyregional_gallery  Windsor, keep heading up the mountains to Braemar House at Springwood to see the solo exhibition of Rachaeldaisy Dodd. Here’s a peek.

I sometimes think that seeing photos of an exhibition or quilt show before seeing it in real life is like seeing the end of a movie before you’ve had a chance to watch it. 
For people visiting the show over the next couple of weeks, I don’t want to spoil the effect of walking into the gallery and seeing my quilts hanging, so I’m just showing peeks, little pops of colour, textural stitches, shapes and hints of more. 
Plus it’s always nice to stop and look for those little details that can be overlooked when taking in a whole quilt.
🪲
I’ll be at @braemargallery after 1pm today, and all day (10-4pm) on Sunday. There’s a farmers market on next door to the gallery on Sunday and it’s going to be a beautiful sunny autumn day, so perfectly peachy for a visit to the mountains.
