The show will be held at held at Cooroy Memorial Hall, open from 10am to 4pm on Friday 30 and Saturday 31 August.
Merchant stalls, hand crafts stall, and a trash and treasure stall will have wonderful items for sale. Two beautiful quilts will be raffled and one fortunate person will receive a lucky door prize.
The group supports Paws assistance dogs by making special sensory coats and these wonderful dogs will be part of the show with their trainers available to answer questions.
All profits from the show are returned to the community and since the last Quilt Show in 2017, they have made donations of many of thousands of dollars, primarily to the Queensland Cancer Council and the Cooroy Memorial Hall, but also to Cooroibah and Tinbeerwah Fire Brigades, Katie Rose Cottage, I Give A Buck Hoofbeats Program, QCWA Drought Relief and Mercy Ships Australia.
Light refreshments will be available and the hall is wheelchair accessible.
