June Meetings

Tuesday, June 3 meeting will be a Social Hour!  Spend an evening socializing and catching up with your friends.  Bring hand work and enjoy a relaxing evening.

Tuesday, June 17 meeting is our popular Quilter's University.  There will be various demo tables set up around the room, each one with a different technique.  Small groups rotate to a different demo table every 10 minutes, so you will get to visit each demo in one evening.   Join us and learn something new!

Tuesday, May 20 meeting will be a Tea Towel program.  Bring in your tea towels and share their story!  Bring any tea towels you wish to share - one that you made, found, received as a gift, bought, an antique or one you love and use all the time.  Join us for a fun evening of sharing stories!

The Nimble Thimbles Chinese Auction raised over $700, and was a resounding success.  To all those who helped organize the auction, you are fabulous. To all who came and participated, you were treated to an evening of hilarious fun and great auction items and we thank you for helping us raise monies for future NT activities. And to those who donated items for the auction, we couldn't have done this without you. Thank you, one and all.

 

Tuesday, April 29th, will be a Sew-In day at the Church. We will be opening up the meeting room at 6 pm to allow us an extra hour of sewing. Bring whatever project you are working on and your sewing machine and join us for an evening of creativity.

 

May 6th will be our first meeting in May. We will be meeting at the Gilbert Museum. Do not meet at the Church. It will be an evening enjoying a local, non-juried, quilt show. This event is free and will include voting for the board for next year.

 

 

 

Safe travels to our members who are driving to Prescott for the quilt camp this weekend.  We look forward to seeing all the beautiful projects you accomplished.

The next meeting on, April 15th, is the annual auction.  There are a lot of beautiful items donated including fabrics, templates, a sewing table, chair, and a Sears sewing machine that is easy to take with you on travels.  Bring your quarters so you can put your name in for a chance to win on the items that catch your eye.  Guests are welcome and they might bring you good luck.  

No show and tell at the April 14th meeting.

Next month, we will be meeting at the Gilbert Museum to view their wonderful quilt collection and voting in new officers.  There are still open positions if you are interested in volunteering.

Next Meeting, February 4th.

Join us to learn the February color for the Scrappy Block of the Month Challenge.

Guest Speaker on the Arizona Documentation Project.

Remember to bring your donations for the April Auction.  Donate your fabric you have fallen out of love with, the pattern you did and don't want to see again, notions you no longer like or that template you bought two of.  All donations will be auctioned in April.
