October Work Day Recap

Don’t want to jinx the weather because it’s been FANTASTIC outside, but I wonder if everyone was enjoying this possible last grasp of gorgeous weather creating a lower number of attendance?  LOL

We had another large donation from the Iowa Quilt Block, which is totally amazing.  Please give Shelly a huge THANK YOU if you stop into the store!  The ideas were a’poppin’ and ladies were putting together possible future quilts as we organized it all.  And also a big THANK YOU to everyone who answered the call to come help sort and organize it all on Friday.  This group of women are always so giving of their time (and talents and friendship), it’s what makes this group pretty darned special.

Discussions included topics on Retreats, sizes of batting and quilts fitting on long arms, and signing up for Meals from the Heartland to help benefit Florida after the hurricane if one felt led to do so.  https://mealsfromtheheartland.org/

A reminder was given that we will use December Show and Tell to share members' experiences from the 2022 Challenge.
