Today we say goodbye to our friend Tania who passed away last Sunday after a year or so of illness, we shared many happy memories of sewing days, road trips, group gatherings and teaching sessions.

visits to the city

sewing days at the Gisborne Quilt shop..
playing tricks on Shez..


..
on the road to Echuca, yes we had a stop at the quilt shop in Rochester..

we met on FNWF evenings and helped each other make the Underground Railroad blocks 

summer gatherings at Tracee's house...

Thank you for the many happy memories Tania.
Rest In Peace.
