President Cathy Drummond welcomes members and guests to our September meeting.

What a wonderful turnout for the first meeting of our MBQG year. We had over 60 members, plus 4 new members and 12 guests. Many thanks to Laurie's students who joined us from Ontario, the Valley and beyond. It was great to have you with us.

There was lots of activity at the workshop table as people signed up for Dawn's workshop, Heather Stewar's workshop and Linda Mills' workshop. Sounds as though they are all going to be close to full.

Show and tell was wonderful, many members were very busy over the summer. Debbie finished her Star Surprise quilt from Linda Mills' workshop.

S1Debbie B
Debbie's quilt was machine quilted by member Lynn Jones. It has been a real treat to see so many quilts finished from this workshop.

It is going to be another busy year ahead with our quilt show coming up in October of 2014. It takes the year to do the planning and it takes lots of volunteers to help. So please volunteer to be on the committee, we need all your help whether you are a new member or old, a beginning quilter or more experienced. You are guaranteed to have a good time!

Be sure and check our Flickr Photostream to see more pictures from our show and tell. the link is to the right, next to the small Guild logo.
