We managed to squeeze in another meeting and the weather was ok. Thanks to all who came out. As always an interesting show and tell and lots to talk about. Be sure and check in on our Flickr Photostream, link is in the righthand sidebar.

Anna has graciously stepped up to lead us all through the design process so we can get going on the sewing and quilting. Many members went to the school as well as their kids so it is very fitting that we take on this project. It will be a busy winter/spring project with the grand unveiling at the celebration weekend on July 4, 2014. Thanks to everyone who came up with ideas for the blocks, Anna is super organized and we hope to have patterns and fabric out soon. We will need lots of help with this project, so please consider giving us a little of your time!
Bev talked to us about a new Retreat, Quilt Atlantic, coming up April 25-27, 2014 at White Point Beach Lodge. The hopes are that this will become an annual event. Click on the link above for more information.
The Seaside Stitchers have been busy with their bee challenge. The latest one involved a paint chip and the theme of "stars".
Ruth, Brenda, Sharon, Patsy, Bev and Marilyn show their blocks. Lorraine who suggested the challenge couldn't be with them, they have 2 more challenges to go. Can't wait to see what comes next!
