11th July

Hi Everyone,

Today was a day of catching up with each other owing to school holidays we were smaller in number. 

I was able to distribute to those who were present a hard copy of the HHQ 2024 Show Guide for Members it will also be emailed (please check your spam box) to all members and posted on our WhatsApp - HHQ Show and Tell. It is important that everyone reads the Show Guide so we are all informed and have no misunderstandings on what is expected from our members for the smooth running of the show.

Show News

We made it into the the weekly eNews email sent by Hunters Hill Council and the July QuiltNSW Newsletter.

The photos below are 3 hand pieced and hand quilted quilts that will be for sale at the show from Stage Sales and some fabric bins that balance off the side of your sewing table which can easily detach for convenient emptying. Each bin is unique owing to the different types of timber used as the counterbalance.

Volunteers are required to help out at the Show so add your name to the rosters which are available at quilting or send an email to Sandy with your availability on it.

🧵 Next Show Committee Meeting will be 18th July.

🧵 Don’t forget to return your sold Raffle Tickets and money.
