Back in 2009 a group of friends met at Quilt Festival in Houston and came up with the idea of forming a group. It would have to be online because we came from different continents. We rallied friends and soon had 12 members spread across 5 countries and 4 continents.
In the first round we decided on a 12" square format where the theme would be chosen by each member in turn and a new one chosen every three months. We are now on our 3rd Series.
We are:
Canada - Dianne Robinson (Montreal)
England - Hilary Gooding (Wimborne), Linda Bilsborrow (Manchester),
Mai Britt Axelsen (Suffolk) and Linda Forey (Derby)
South Africa - Phillida Fisher (Durban), Patricia A'Bear (Johannesburg) and Allison Moorcroft (Durban)
France - Jinnie Robisson (Paris)
New Zealand - Rosemary Rush
Australia - Amanda Doyle
Taiwan - Momoko Tsai
(Phillida and Hilary are sisters, Patricia and Rosemary are sisters.)
Previous members who said goodbye are Rosie Francis (Australia), Venetta Morger (America ), Marion Perrault, Pamela Chasen, Heather Dubreuil, Colleen Paul, Michele Meredith and Helena Scheffer (all from Canada), Uta Lenke (Germany), Claire Passmore (UK)
