In October 2018 we held our first exhibition to showcase our work, at CICIC in Taunton. Many of our members have exhibited quilts before, including at Festival of Quilts, but it was the first time for others.

This was our Rainbow Challenge – a ‘quilt’ made from mini quilts. We were given a bundle of rainbow fabric and asked to make a 12″ by 12″ quilt. It was fascinating to see what everybody made, and the different styles produced.
