Meeting on April 2nd

Do you like to play games and win prizes?  This meeting is all about fun and prizes.
Quilto is like Bingo with quilt words and quilt prizes.
You don't need to bring anything but your winning spirit and expectation to have fun.


Block of the month

The block for March is Baby Chick (page 10) or Mama Hen (page 42).
Bring your finished block for show and tell.
Our block of the month is from the book Vintage Farm Girl.

Board positions

We are already looking for volunteers for next years board.
The positions for programs and ways and means still need a candidate.

Programs - Scheduling guest speakers for meetings.  There is a budget and several of the meetings have annual programs.  This could work best for a team to schedule together.

Ways and Means - This is our fundraising person.  This includes the small quilt auction and other fundraising options such as the store, raffle baskets, and trash to treasures auction.

Next Meeting on April 16th

The next meeting we will be hosting Swan Sheridan from Swan Amity Studios.
She was suggested by our own Merci who saw her speak in California.
Her website is SwanAmity.com
