Join us for a friendly and inspiring day with fellow quilters at the QGBI Region 8 Regional Day on Saturday 24 October, from 10am to 4pm, at Stock Village Hall, Common Road, Stock, Essex, CM4 9NF.

We are delighted to welcome Sheena Aitken of Green Man Quilts as our guest speaker.
In her talk, From Confused to Confident – Colour Magic for Quilters, Sheena explores one of the most important aspects of quilting—colour.
While colour is a vast subject, she will share key principles and practical tips to help you make more confident colour choices for your quilts, giving you inspiration and ideas to take home.

The afternoon workshop is to be confirmed.
