5th September Community Day

 Hi Everyone, 

Welcome to Spring sewing at Hunters Hill Quilters. The weather certainly didn’t disappoint us with a warm and sunny day. There was plenty of activity at quilting today as it was Community Day and some spring cleaning of the cupboards. Thank you to all the ladies who helped with the last three containers of fabric as it has been a long task but we have found good homes for the collection.

Safe driving to all those members who are attending the Retreat this weekend at Kincumber. ๐Ÿš™

๐ŸŽ‚ Happy Birthday to the ladies who celebrate their birthday in September๐ŸŽ‚. I hope you enjoy your special day.

 Next week at quilting Hunters Hill Quilters will be celebrating our birthday. Please bring a glass as we have organised cake and some bubbles. We will also be presenting RizeUp Australia with our donation from the funds raised at the Quilt Show.

Linda from the Zonta Club of North Sydney contacted me this week with the news that they had raised $1,000 from their raffle from the two quilts we donated. They are now able to provide more clean Birthing Kits for women in developing countries. A special thank you to Ellen and Lin for introducing us to Linda from the Zonta Club. The quilts were much appreciated by the winners. If you would like to help Zonta the next birthing kit assembly day in North Sydney is on 12th October - see Ellen or Lin.
