May Showers?

After a very dry April, I guess none of us can complain that the month of May started with a downpour. Nonetheless, more than thirty of us braved the wet roads and gloomy skies to take in the meeting on Monday, the first of May. The business meeting was brief, full of reminders for upcoming events like the weekend Yard…

Photography 101 For Quilters

Starting the year in vintage style

September's meeting was a taste of meetings past - lots of members (over 45 of us!), raffle tickets, the fat quarter draw (with Betty L. taking the prize), a brief business meeting and Sew and Share, and a sneak peek at this year's Challenge Quilts - all followed with a great program to introduce another year of quilting activity. Let's…
