February Meeting Notes

Here's a little info from our last meeting!

The baby dedication process is changing. The church is considering having a class for the parents as part of the dedication process. The date for the next baby dedication has not been set and we don't know how many quilts we will need. Debbie will keep us posted. Keep them coming and we'll be ready when the next rush hits!

Betsy shared a devotional from a book "Jesus Calling"

We are considering having another retreat in June. Let Betsy know if you'd be interested. We do have a retreat set for October 3-6 - let her know if you'd like to go to that one too!

Gossypium; The new quilt shop in Issaquah is open. Val Davis reported she will be teaching beginning quilting at the shop. Mo Newman (former coordinator of Companionship Quilters) is also teaching there, and coordinating teachers.

Diana showed a antique quilt made by her grandmother that she is planning on repairing. Sounds like her grandmother made quite a few of these. Well loved and well used - just what a quilt should be. Click on the pic to see it larger.


Many of us are working on the Craftsy Block of the Month, and brought the latest blocks to share. We watched the video for Month #4 which are two blocks that incorporate hexagons.

Show and Tell was fun too! Click on the pics to see them larger!
