Special events coming soon:

- Material Obsession annual Swap Day on Saturday 7/12/2013, with great sales and workshops for 2014: in fact, I'm told, bigger and better that ever before. See what Kathy says about it on MO's blog
Our Stepping Stone House Christmas gifts donation: Grace is ready to accept your donations, with plans for shopping later in the month and gift wrapping on the first Thursday of December.
Jill gave us an update on the work and the successes of the Familial Cancer Research that she has been involved in for several years. As we donated the proceeds of our 2004 Quilt Show to the Familial Cancer Research, it was a positive re-enforcement of the good work they are doing.
Susan H shared a National Trust article about a tour of Alysoun and Carl's home in Hunters Hill: it included stories of Alysoun's many quilts, her sewing room and the origins of HHQ on their back veranda. A lovely story of a super lady and a lovely home..
We also had our first travel story: Robyn Jo shared the highlights of their caravan trip across the Nullabar to Perth: playing golf, counting emus and enjoying the wildflowers.
Show and Tell: Janet did it again - two more quilts !
Her group quilt for community: it is a very clever pattern - check out the secondary pattern of little white butterflies.
and a close up of the blocks ...
Then the Scottie dog quilt ... very cute, with 'bones' quilted in the tartan blocks.
Debbie Ing. was asked if she would donate a quilt to their local fire brigade - with a week's notice - this was a UFO that got finished very quickly.
A close up of some of the beautiful Japanese fabrics.
It was another busy day with lots of good things happening : enjoy your sewing week,
Cheers Iris
