November Meeting

Our November meeting was Thursday. We had our President's challenge program, and we nominated new officers for 2017!


November minutes - 
Secretary: ---
Treasurer's Report: --- xxx.xx
Block of the month --- All patterns have been passed out for the year.

Community service --- The red white and blue blocks for the Valor quilt we were all working on have been turned in. Sue has come up with a new quilt idea, and she passed out patterns to everyone to make blocks for this project.
The Baptist Home in Chillicothe has once again invited us to come over and give a quilt program during their County Fair Day in August, so we are planning ahead and trying to get some community service quilts done so we can have a full show when summer rolls around!

Old business: ----

New Business: 
Officers for 2017 ---
President elect: Patti
Treasurer: Romme
Secretary: Pat O
Website: Katie
Block of the Month: Margie

The decision was made for the Block of the Month program to be redefined to be intended to make blocks for community service quilts. We decided that in the New Year we would once again do without the office of Program Chairwoman, as our system for programs this year worked out pretty well. Our former Chairwoman, Carolyn, who brought us so many wonderful ideas and programs in past years, has left us too soon and we feel that it would be hard to replace her.


December meeting - Bring anything from your sewing room that you would like to give away for gift exchange. Also, please bring a food item.  Some members expressed interest in playing Moda Bingo during our meeting. Sounds like fun, doesn't it? 
Our December meeting falls on the 15th, so mark your calendars! Bring a friend or two if you'd like. The more the merrier!


Show and Tell --- Margie, Janet, Romme, Katie, Sue
