Just a reminder of our next Quilt of Valor Workshop will be Saturday June 27th from 9-3.

New location: Pella Corporation
Park on south side of parking lot and use the front south entrance. If no one is at the door, please ring the door bell and someone will let you in. You will need to sign in and someone will show you to the training room where we will be working.

There will be plenty of space to work. As always, please bring your machine, an iron or any supplies that you may have.

We will have a potluck lunch. Carol Cox will furnish sloppy joes, buns, plates, napkins, and drinks. If you want pop, please bring some. We will have a separate room for lunch

Carol has six quilts that need some hand sewing so there will be some different jobs this weekend.

Carol has been working hard putting pieces together, so there will be plenty of quilts to start sewing and also some pillow cases that need to be sewed together.

Come and stay as long as you want, we'd love you to join the group.

Hope to see you Saturday!!

Sorry to say we will NOT be meeting this Sunday, April 11. Too many other activities are happening, and many couldn't attend.

But...I will contact you soon with info about Poppy Days. Might be adding something new this year. :)

From President Patti hi ladies,

We've had a slight change in plans for Saturday April 11th. We will not be having our workshop in the morning. We've all been busy sewing, that we need to have our supply replenished. We also will be presenting quilts at Elm Heights and Windsor Manor.

If you are available Saturday afternoon, we'd love to have you come to the care centers as we present quilts to the residents. Here is the time Schedule:

Elm Heights: 1:30
Windsor Manor 3:30

If you have any auxiliary apparel, it would be nice to wear it so we can make everyone aware of our group! If not that's fine too.

Once Carol gets kits ready, we are planning on setting up pick up and drop off spots in town, so we can continue to sew all summer long. Once we have this worked out, I'll let you know.

Thanks for all you do!
Patti
