In 1997 Lonsdale Lights began after many cups of coffee and chat with a couple of near neighbours.  We found we were working on our own and decided we preferred company and motivation gained by working in a group.
Since that time members have come and gone and our numbers remain capped at twenty.  We changed our venue to the Anglican Hall, Point Lonsdale in 2001.
Many projects have been undertaken in the the past sixteen years, including Mystery Quilts in 1999 and 2008; Row by Row in 2000 and 2010; Birthday blocks in 2001 and another Mystery Block of the Month in 2002.  In 2003 and 2004 we made Friendship Blocks for all members and 2005, 2006 and 2007 were Fabric Swap years.  In 2009 we worked on our own projects; 2011 and 2012 were spent finishing UFOs and this current year 2013 is a Two Colour Quilt challenge.
