To celebrate our Silver Anniversary in 2006, 25 quilts were made for that year’s Quilt Show Challenge. After careful study of photos taken at various Waverley Patchworkers activities, a list of the quilt style most popular in each of the 25 years was drawn up. Twenty five members then nominated a year they would like to represent and so we had our “Twenty five quilts in Twenty five years”.
Here is the first decade. In later posts you will see the rest as well as the five added for our 30th birthday and the newest additions made for our 35th birthday this year.
- Hexagons Granny’s Garden
- 1983 Sampler – Traditional
- 1984 Log Cabin
- 1985 Pieced Stars
- 1986 Double Wedding Ring
- 1987 Cathedral Windows
