Welcome to 2QAQ
“from little things big things grow” sings Paul Kelly
What is 2QAQ? It stands for Queensland Quilters Art Quilts. QQ has long supported traditional quilting; with the impact art quilting is having within the quilt world, it is time that QQ members have the opportunity to explore contemporary work. Sue Dennis chairs the 2QAQ committee, supported by Jane Rundle, Kathryn Iliff, Lexie Peters, Melanie Forrest, Suzanne Marshall and Ros Ward.
2008 was a busy year. QQ's first dedicated art quilt exhibition - State of the Art quilt 09 - was organised. As well, members met monthly to share our quilts and techniques, learn, be enthused by guest speakers at ARTiculation Afternoons & make new friends.
If you love art quilts, if you make art quilts or are thinking of starting, or are just curious, come join in. Meetings will be the last Saturday of each month from February to November, with the exception of March (the launch of State of the Art quilt 09 on the Gold Coast) and October (the Queensland Quilt Show in Brisbane).
Regular Meeting Venue - Greenslopes Bowls Club, 131 Ridge Street, unless indicated otherwise.
Time - Doors open 12.30pm for social time. Lunch, drinks & coffee is available from the club. Formal meeting starts 1pm. Afternoon tea 2.30pm. Show & tell 3pm. Meeting closes 4pm.
Cost - $3 members, $5 non-members.
Afternoon tea provided. The library is not available. Please bring your quilts for show & tell - they can be older ones you may like to share with us.
