Happy start of a new quilting season! Our first meeting is on Wednesday September 5th at 7pm at our normal location. (Christ community church 2221 Bowen Road, Nanaimo) Here is a quick run down of some of the items we will be covering:
- Membership dues
- Demo planning for the year – does anyone have anything they would like to learn? Anyone from our group want to do a demo? Do you have any names & contacts of people that may want to come and do a demo?
- Block of the month, we decided at the organizational meeting we would switch it up a bit this year; due to the intimate group we have we don’t want to overwhelm people with projects. So we are going to switch between block of the month and challenges. Christine is going to be in charge of block of the month and Pyra in charge of challenges. If anyone has any suggestions for block of the month please feel free to email Christine directly.
- Block of the month will be September November February and April. This month is going to be wedges as topography. A couple other groups are doing them across Canada this month and I thought it would be fun to join in the fun. There is a hashtag etc. so I will take care of that next month. I will have a handout and some demo for everyone to see at the meeting
- Sew ins here are the dates for them. Carly will be the contact for the sew in days and will go over quickly what we agreed on for cancelations etc. so they run smoothly this year.
