Hi, all!

How can you tell I was in charge of the meeting recap for July?  It’s August 7th.  That’s how. 🙂  Jaclyn’s way more on the ball…

Anyway, we had a lovely turnout for a Sunday in July.  Kelly gave us an excellent mini-workshop on bag-making.  She even showed us how to do zippers properly.  I really have no excuse for sub-par zipper sewing now; too many of our guild members are wicked sewists!

Kelly also brought in some of her work to show us.  They were oohed and aahed over.  Such great fabric choices…

We also had a total for the blocks we sent out to Calgary – we had more than 25 blocks and several yards of backing fabric!!  Those blocks have been added to our Flickr group. Thanks to everyone who was able to contribute. 🙂 And thanks to the folks on the Calgary end for their generous donation of time and energy to organize all those quilts.

We always finish up our meetings with Show & Tell:

It’s been an great summer so far!  Hope to see you at our informal Wednesday night meeting on Aug 14th, at 7pm – Greystone Co-op.  You never know what will happen – last month we had a visitor from Norway!! Always an adventure… 🙂

See you soon!

Carly
