Demonstration Tables

We are always looking for volunteers to share some of their talent with the group. Perhaps you know a new technique or small project idea that would be ideal. We are particularly looking for people to demo basic techniques that would be perfect for the beginner.  You will have free entry for the day and also £5 as a thank you for your time. If you can help, please contact Lynda at 01455 556498 or lynda@hillfamily39.fsnet.co.uk

Sales Table
Running out of cash for that next big project? Why not bring any unwanted craft items in new or good condition to sell at our regular sales table. Each item needs to have the price and your initials on a pinned or paper clipped piece of paper on the front of the item so the label can be removed by the committee member when the item is sold. Don't forget to collect your cash and any unsold items before you leave. Rocheberie Quilters will retain 10% of the cost of each item sold to boost our funds. You may bring back items to sell to the next meeting but we are not able to store items for you.  Please note that the sales table won't be open until 10 am to give everyone a fair chance to see what is on offer.

Recycling Quilting Magazines
You can donate your unwanted quilting magazines to the group without having to collect them at the end of the day. We have a "magazine box" which members can flip through. Magazines will be sold with donations being collected in an honesty box. Unsold magazines will be kept and brought to the next meeting by a committee member.

Bring Your Own Mug
If you don't want to add to this country's mountain of plastic waste why not bring your own mug along to meetings - we will be happy to fill your favourite mug with tea and coffe
e for free during the day.

Show and Tell
Don't forget to bring your items for Show and Tell and attach your name with a safety pin before handing it in. 

Please note that if your show and tell is delicate or precious, please keep hold of it so that you can hold it up during Show and Tell.
