October 2007 - Quay Quilters Exhibition in the William Loveless Hall

If you went to the William Loveless Hall on either Saturday 13th October or Sunday 14th October, you will have had a great treat as the 65 members of Quay Quilters displayed their talents. The Hall was filled to over-flowing with quilts, wall-hangings, cushions, and other needle-craft work.  A large number of people did indeed go to this exhibition, and no doubt were amazed at what they saw. Including amongst those who visited the show was Wivenhoe Town Mayor, Cllr David Purdey, who was thoroughly impressed and said so at the Town Council meeting the following Monday.

The pictures below really do not do the exhibition justice. Many congratulations to Jane Brooks who leads this thriving group and to everyone who worked hard to put another great show, as well as to all those people who had items on display.
