Blue Star Quilt and other things

The quilt made by Susan as a raffle prize to raise funds for the CF Trust is currently receiving much attention and praise whilst it is on display at Angie's in Cheadle. You can see it also at: http://www.angiequilts.blogspot.co.uk/
The draw for the raffle will be made on 19 December, so if you need to buy some more tickets you'd better get your skates on! Good luck!

We had another meeting of SCCC this week. Chris and Viv Shelley and their friend Mike gave a great talk about sailing the Beneteau Oceanis, Big Blue, around the Western Isles of Scotland, and I realised immediately that Roger and I had sailed Blue Star right past their front door earlier this year, off Bute! Tom Cunliffe also starred in their presentation! They came across Tom whilst in Lochaline and went aboard his boat Constance and discussed Antares charts. The presentation included a photo of them all aboard Constance!

Jokes:
Quilting is where you take a number of pieces of lovely fabric and then cut them into pieces, and then sew them back together again. Susan makes a marvellous job of it.
