September Meetings

Tuesday, September 6 is our next Nimble Thimbles meeting. One of our very talented members, Merci Apodaca, has agreed to present a trunk show of several of her quilt collections. You all have admired her work during the Show and Tell portion of our meetings in the past. Now you'll get a chance at an in-depth look at Merci's amazing work. And don't forget our on-going projects as well: Red, White and Blue scissors cases for the AQG Fall meeting; and the two President's Challenge projects: string blocks and birdhouse mini-quilts. See you all the day after Labor Day!

We welcome guests, but be warned, if you come, you WILL want to join! Each meeting features a program and Show and Tell.

We endeavor to educate ourselves and our community about the art of quilts, however, our mission goes beyond that. We also serve the community through the making and donation of charity quilts.

Nimble Thimbles is comprised of quilters of all ages, styles and levels of ability. The one thing that binds us together is the love of quilts and quilting. Our eclectic group is warm, inviting and fun. Whether you are new to quilting, or a seasoned pro, we're sure you'll fit right in.
