Congratulations to Kathy who attended the AQC in Melbourne last week and was honoured with acceptance into the Hall of Fame. Kathy brings creativity and a passion not only to her business Material Obsession but also to Hunters Hill Quilters.
Today we had a number of quilts at Show & Tell with more bags and hats being completed and returned for our Quilt Show. Thanks to our members who are constantly making quilts for our Community commitments.
Please remember that there is no meeting next week owing to the ANZAC Day public holiday.
