This long weekend, well Saturday, you will find me in Merriwa. The Festival of the Fleeces is a tradition held in Merriwa each June long weekend. Visited by thousands of people over the weekend with street stalls, shearing shed tours, working dog trials and all things country.

Our quilt exhibition is held in the School of Arts hall on Saturday with an exhibition, craft table with handmade goods to purchase and my shop.

Hope to see friends from afar, I’ve have lots of goodies for you all. 🙂

🧵 Don’t miss the extraordinary Quilt Exhibition at this year’s Festival of the Fleeces.

Marvel at the incredible talent and craftsmanship on display, then cast your vote in the People’s Choice Award. Be sure to grab a raffle ticket too, you could take home a stunning handmade quilt or a beautifully quilted cushion.

After you’ve wandered through these fantastic works of art, settle in and enjoy a warm bowl of homemade soup. Choose from pea and ham, tomato, chicken and vegetable, or pumpkin… or why not try them all? Morning and afternoon tea will also be available, featuring homemade paddy cakes and slices a true country treat.
