Becky tells us she is just using a cheap hanky to stitch this beautiful work... just a cheap hanky! Well it's not going to be 'cheap' when she finishes is it!
Cath is playing with Hexies, I hope we see more of these and these below as well......
Christine is loving having some easy hand work to do on the train as she travels back and forth from Sydney to Bathurst!
I love this work of Colleen's, I wonder how it will finish up.
Emma bought these lovely fabrics along and managed to cut them all to pieces with only stringy scraps to take home... Oh and many many Hexagons as well of course :-)
Irene is working away on another crochet scarf for her favourite Charity.
Now these look interesting, I wonder what Jean is up to... she did explain but my head was already full so now I can't remember but hopefully we will see one day soon.
Methinks there might have been just a tad of reverse sewing going on here since we last saw this amazing piece of work from Liz... just a tad.
I have no idea what is going on here, but it looks such fun! Do you want to try and guess? or... maybe we'll wait for Lynne to finish so we can see eh!
I am knitting this pattern or a very similar one for the 7th time... Yes Seventh time :-) who's decision was it to have so many grown up kids eh! This one is for DS2.
Penny has been Lucy Boston-ing for many many months now, I did ask her how many more blocks she thought she needed to do but... as I have already said... my head was full so I can't remember, she must have hundreds already done though, what an amazing quilt this will be and knowing Penny as I do, it will be beautifully hand quilted as well.
I love these bright blocks that Robyn makes up, looking forward to seeing where this one goes in the scheme of things.
Ros was binding, binding and binding... this is the last process of a quilt and one that takes a long time doesn't it.
Beautiful and very pretty seed sack fabrics are being turned into these blocks by Gillian, so delicate.
Heather... I still love this block and it is looking better and better... Heather tells us she only sews these blocks when she comes to one of our Pubs!!
Selina, Selina, Selina... I wonder what you are up to now... Your sketch looks interesting... I guess we will just have to wait and see eh!
Shirley, all the way up from Melbourne, bought along one of our favourite pieces of handwork when we are out and about... Hexagons! Yay!
Now I've saved the best till last... well maybe it's because the maker of this little item has a name starting with S...
Stephanie tells me she is making a... wait for it... A Codpiece!!! She isn't actually but she certainly got a good laugh... this is a Water Bottle holder, one of several she's making for her Grandchildren! :-)

Show, Show, Show and Tell! Aways amazing and very inspiring.
Just look at this little heart! Lynne tells us she wanted to learn how to sew Grub Roses... well she certainly learnt pretty quick didn't she! What a beautiful piece of work!
Now this is wonderful... see this lovely skirt, which belongs to one of Lynne's Grand Daughters. Well the pale blue fabric used to be a pair of trousers but the Grand Daughter wanted them turned into a skirt... so Lynne added a couple of panels down the side and the aforementioned Grand Daughter now has a beautiful skirt to wear! Clever eh!
I knew it, I could have guessed it... Yes Jean is making Bonnie K Hunters latest Mystery Quilt... Hurray! I am going to as well but I've been a bit busy and important lately, I've kept the instructions though and now can't wait to get sewing. I love your colours Jean!
Check out his beautiful little knitted rug by Maureen, so delicate but check out the beautiful bag her daughter made... very clever daughter I don't mind adding.
This bag was very much admired by all at the Pub yesterday, very much admired!
As was Selina's very clever bag below, but it's her shirt I envy... I want one! Actually I need one :-)
This is the quilt Maureen was working on, so pretty and such wonderful hand quilting.
This is the quilt Ros was working on the binding of, lovely!
And check out Emma's wacky crochet scarf, great pattern and great colours!
Last but not least and spotted just before we all left the Pub, Cath's dilly bag! 'Hexagons Rule' I reckon!

SCQuilters at the Blue Gum Pub yesterday, lots of lovely SCQuilters that I have missed seeing for the last few gatherings because I've been just too busy and important! :-)
You have no idea how long it takes some people to get ready for a Photo Shoot :-) But no worries Pennie and Annie achieved it in the end.
Emma was there with a beautiful mini Fuchsia plant struck by the clever Lynne.
Heather and Robyn, behaving for once!
What a happy grin Cath has today...
Emma was there... along with Liz.
The Threesome were there... Rita, Glynis and Lynne... look out everybody!
Stephanie and Marilyn... trying to look innocent!
And Emma was there, with a little doll I knitted and gave to her... Emma's named her 'Penniedarling', my 3 3/4 year old grandson had named her Isla.

Busy, busy and just as busy as usual.
Annie's Hexagons and below Annie's little sewing kit.
Cath is making something really interesting with these Hexagons.
Emma's Hexi Christmas Decoration, what a clever idea.
Glynis was binding these three little quilts for charity, she's machine quilted them herself... Wow!
Below is the back of this one above.
Looking good Heather, just a couple of smiles to go.
Lizzie's wonderwork is moving along, a lot more done since I saw it last.
Lynne finishing off a couple of old Christmas decorations.
Lynne was also working on this little piece for one of her grand daughters... I wonder what her name starts with??
I am knitting this jumper for my DS2 Gwilym, it is the 6th time I've knitted this Aran pattern so I know it off by heart now.
Rita was making Christmas Decorations and below putting bells on her bunting.
Robyn continues working on her lovely bright quilt block by block.
Ruth crocheting up another masterpiece.
Marilyn was Hexing as well.

We're a weird mob that's for sure, we call ourselves Quilters but very rarely does one see someone actually quilting... we do cover a wide range of handy skills don't we. What would be a new name for us I wonder... Any ideas??
