Di Jobbins made this lovely warm quilt for her DH... and he loves it! :-)
Linda made this very large Log Cabin quilt for her Grand Daughter, I love the way the top and the bottom are scalloped.

An Aussie quilt for Linda's new Grandson.
...with some cute words for babies on the back.

Jean Fotheringham won this border fabric in a competition on Di Jobbins Blog a while ago, she loved it so much she bought a lot more of the same fabric and produced this wonderful quilt top!
Becky Wright had a very interesting day... She dragged out some very crumpled pieces from the bottom of her sewing bag and proceeded to put them together... she knew it was a house block cut out many years ago but the pattern was lost so she tried the pieces this way... then she tried them that way... but still there were some left over... did the block have only one chimney or was there two??
But with dogged persistance the block was finished before the end of the day! Well Done Bec!

Bec's Spools are completed, now she will put border of squares around it then another border of some sort.

Cath Midson ran this Michelle Marvig quilt top up in only 5 days... wonderful isn't it!

Cath also made this top... a cheapy for just $20. Good Value I reckon!

Claire Gover... lovely pinky browny quilt top.

Gay Jenkins, 7 foot long Christmas table runner, a gift for an Aussie Friend.

Heather Watts magnificent Periwinkle quilt all hand made and machine quilted by Nic Bridges.

Liz Price usually makes ATC's or small hangings, so it was lovely to see a large quilt being finished off yesterday!

Ros Bickford is hand quilting some interesting patterns on her quilt.

SCQuilters at the Blue Gum last Saturday.

There was great excitement at the Blue Gum when we arrived around 10am, the car park was almost full, there were people (not SCQuilters) coming and going and the place and humming!

Seems that yesterday was the first time they had opened for Breakfast and what a Menu it was... Yummo!... we might start our Gatherings earlier next month making it a breakfast day instead of a lunch day LOL

Might being the operative word here... the traffic would be lighter though wouldn't it eh??

Kate Crutchley called in briefly with the blocks she's making for her DD Imogen... aren't these cute!

Penny Smith, Lyn Allitt and Marilyn Robinson.
I declare Penny Smith to be the SCQuilters Wonder Woman of the day... before she arrived at the Blue Gum just after 11am she'd been to a Wedding, a Wedding Breakfast, bought a pair of shoes on Sale (which she was wearing) and had a short nap!!!!!! Admittedly the Wedding was a Dawn Wedding starting at 5:45am but all the same what a morning! and there she sits calmly quilting LOL

You win this months Gold Star Penny, make sure you bring it back next month :-)
