Coorparoo Quilters Inc. Quilt Show

I was very fortunate to be invited to the official opening of the Coorparoo Quilters Quilt Show on Friday night.
There were heaps of quilts, lots of lovely ladies to chat to, and some very honoured guests.
Here is Dr Betty Byrne Henderson AM
and the Hon Cameron Dick MP, State Member for Greenslopes. He serves as the Attorney-General and Minister for Industrial Relations.
Behind them is the quilt designed by Michele Steel and Jane Rundle and made by the Coorparoo ladies. The design is based on the tiles at Queen Alexandra House Coorparoo. The quilt will most likely end up as part of the collection of the State Library of Queensland.
