We have a workshop coming up on October 25th, 9:00 a.m. to 1:00 p.m. We meet in the room off the kitchen at the New London Alliance Church. Enter through the back door, turn left, turn right immediately, then turn right again. Just follow the sound of our voices and machines.
Next item was our November 13th meeting will be elections of officers. If you want to nominate someone or be considered for an office, please come to this meeting.
There will be no workshop the months of November or December because of holiday weekends.

Our first meeting of the new year will be on January 8th. This will be a regular meeting but we will also be working on the first block for the block of the month . The first block is the upper left corner block on the pattern. If you are interested in doing this BOM and don't have a pattern, contact us and we will make sure you get your copy. If you don't want to do the BOM, that's okay, please come to the meeting anyway.
January 31st will be our first workshop of the year. Laurie Jones will be instructing us in quilt embellishing. There will be a small fee for a kit, price hasn't been decided as yet. If you are interested in signing up, please give one of the officers a call.
Winter is on it's way and that means S-N-O-W!!!!! and bad road conditions. If the meeting is cancelled, the decision will be made by 5:00 p.m. A call chain will be initiated and hopefully we will be able to reach everyone. If you don't receive a call, use your own judgment. The roads can be bad in the morning, but by afternoon they can be clear.
We had just a couple of show and tells.
This is Yvonne's sixteen patch for the foster child project. Very colorful!
Marcella used fall colors for this Mariner's Compass with an appliqued pumpkin in the middle.
This Halloween wall hanging was made by Chris P. BOO!
That's all we have for this week. Enjoy the fall colors! The trees are turning fast.
