Did we have a wonderful meeting last night! France gave us a history of English Paper Piecing complete with fabulous pics. Then we all had a chance to try our hand at this old technique. Lots of chatter, laughter and just plain fun. I know what my next take-along project will be! Thanks for the time it took to put together such a great presentation, France.
Much of the chatter included getting to know out guests from Loose Threads and our new member, Lise. Sharing ideas , problems and successes it much of what makes a guild live - and judging from the smiles last night, we are alive and well.
Next up is the Oct. 17th CQQ AGM - I plan to attend for the first time- it sounds like a whole lot more than just a dry business meeting! Now to cut out my pieces for the mystery quilt block.
Then, our next meeting will be on the 20th - scrap bag sale night- so clean out some of your "don't wants", bring them along and we'll make a bit of money for the guild. Also- Allison is due to give us a "how-to" on blogging - it's fun, easy and I just need to find out about pictures now.
Don't forget our Virtual Library - now shelved on "our" shelf in the closet in the meeting room in the Community Centre.
Happy quilting!

Thanks LinMW for your nice report. It was really fun to prepare this demo. I enjoyed the crowd very much. Will I see some coasters finished?
