30th July

Hi Everyone,

2 weeks to our go! Today we sorted through our cupboards gathering all the supplies we will need for our Quilt Show and thanks to everyone who is storing items at their homes until our bump in day. The coordinators for each of our areas are busy and members have responded to volunteer their time and supply food. If you are looking to help out please see Grace or Sandy.

The Cafe is ready to go and we are looking forward to serving our visitors with delicious food and beverages. We hope you will enjoy a break with some well earned sustenance after admiring the Quilts, Waggas, Stage Sales, Stitching Lounge and Material Obsession. 

There will be plenty of scones, jam and cream every day at the Cafe. We will also have GF items available.

Hunters Hill Quilters are having our biennial quilt show on August 14th to August 16th 2026 at Hunters Hill Town Hall. Apart from a display of beautiful quilts made by members, there will be a display of Waggas, handcrafted items and quilts for sale and our very popular cafe serving homemade cakes and sandwiches. Two hand sewn quilts will also be raffled. We have two generous sponsors for our show - Hunters Hill Council is a major sponsor and Material Obsession.

Hi Everyone,

Our biannual Quilt Show will soon be here, so here are some reminders for our members for our bump in day as it is huge and thank you to everyone and family members who has signed up to help us.

We have planned for all our requirements to be available but we must be flexible as sometimes things don’t go according to plan. The committee has worked hard on the floor plan layout and things have changed from previous years, so we are navigating a few new areas and ways for our setup. I am asking for everyone to wait for instructions from the coordinator of the section you are assisting.

Each of our areas has a precise order of construction so we can avoid hazards to our volunteers - make sure of your safety and others at all times. If you feel you cannot manage a task ask for assistance - see Grace or anyone on the Show Committee team.

Hi Everyone,

Today a few of us did a site visit to the Town Hall and met with our lighting genius Andre to finalise our layout for the Quilt Show. By the time we came back to the hall many of the ladies had added their names to the rosters. Thank you to everyone who has signed up or who have contacted me or Grace with their availability - it is all coming together.

Heather gave herself a break from making bags this week and added some variety to her schedule by making scout scarves for her daughter’s group.

Robyn J has been recovering at home but has kept herself busy sewing items for our Quilt Show.

🎉 Happy Birthday 🎉 to the ladies who celebrate their birthday in July - wishing you many happy returns for your special day.

Hi Everyone,

We were informed today at quilting it is only 48 days until we open the doors at Hunters Hill Town Hall to our fabulous biannual Quilt Show - what ever you do don’t panic! Next week at quilting we will have the rosters out for our members to volunteer their time - make sure you sign up to help out.

A huge Thank You to Jonquil who has undertaken the task of finding information and a new provider for our Public Liability Insurance.  This ensures that we have suitable insurance coverage whilst we attend quilting as Quilt NSW can no longer offer us insurance under their policy.

Some more bags made by Heather 

Eastwood Quilters sent us a flyer for their Quilt Show in July. I know many of our members enjoy attending this event.
