Fun and Games

We had a good turnout for the meeting with 35 members in attendance and 2 visitors. The visitor's were Norma Spejewski's Granddaughters and she is teaching them to quilt.

Thanks Norma for passing your love of quilting on down the line.

The July program was "Fun and Games" led by Cindy Conrad.  Members were to bring 2.5" strips and fat quarters for this.

July's "Icky Thump" block drawing was won by Julie Niles.  Congrats Julie!
