A special thanks to Kathy Faucette for serving as our secretary for 2013. Kathy, thank you for a job well done. We especially appreciate your efforts to record our meetings each month and all you did to serve behind the scenes. A special thanks for your will-ing spirit and enthusiasm!
Kathy leads with a little Christmas party frivolity!
Dear Members, Happy New Year!!! I hope you have all had an amazing and peaceful holiday season. I again want to acknowledge what an awe-some meeting and party we had in Decem-ber!! I am looking forward to another great year of Quilting and community service. As you look through your closets, shelves, and drawers of fabric, try to plan a quilt that will be a new and wonderful challenge for you! Try a new technique, a different pat-tern, a change in color palette. Something "outside of the box" to which you are ac-customed. There are so many exciting things about our wonderful hobby (obsession) to learn and do. You are all in-credible artists and the possibilities are limitless.
Happy Quilting!
Donna Wesemann
