2020 Annual Business Meeting!

We've had such fun quilting in 2020, but now it is time to take care of a bit of business!

It is time to elect new Executive Board Members, develop a Program of Work, establish Committees, schedule Retreats, and consider future Service Projects and Rock Star events!

Annual Business Meeting

When:  Saturday, February 29th at 2:00 pm
Where:  Cordova Center Library

February Fun!

Many members gathered this weekend to make progress on quilting projects!

Barb made great progress ... slicing Pinwheels up to create cute Churn Dash blocks!

Shannon was busy turning charm squares into hashtag blocks!

Super sweet table runner ... design by Sherri Falls!

Nora came with her scrap tote ...

... and is creating a quilt for a friend!

Diane worked on her beautiful Pineapple quilt ... she is still deciding whether it will be queen or king sized!  The end is in sight!

Susie brought in a Jelly Roll Rug that she just completed!  Beautiful!

Amber was busy piecing blocks for the Flying Geese Crossing she started when Kimberly Einmo taught here.

Stunning results!

Sarah brought in her Anchor quilt for Show n' Share! She started it at fall retreat and here it is finished!

Three members were busy making the same quilt this weekend.  Each chose their own color palette, what fun!

Sarah's version!

Angela's batik version!

Marcela finished her version!  It was fun for all members to watch the three quilts come together!

Quilting Fun

Mission accomplished for new member Sarah!

Marcela always accomplishes so much at these events! Sew inspiring!

Shannon came with a Holiday mission!  She went home yesterday with her mission accomplished!

Diane's grandson is one lucky 5 year old!

Kelsey brought in a quilt that she had pieced in high school, ten years ago.

For her 30th birthday, her mother, Diane, quilted and bound it for her!  Lovely in every possible way!

Amber made great progress on her Tula Pink inspired quilt top, Lone Starburst!

Kay also worked on her Starburst!  We all loved the darker background!

This is the only picture I got of Susie, and she is hiding behind this beautiful panel she shared with us!  Sorry Susie ... next time I will take tons of pics of you!

Breakout Sessions

Jackie taught several of us how to make cozy carriers for our small and large irons!

She had worked out all the details for us in advance!

Denna made two!  One of each size!

Thanks to Jackie, our irons will not only be safe and secure, but they will travel in super cute containers as well!

Kay lead a session on the importance of labeling our quilts.  She shared many different techniques!  Thanks Kay!

Friendship
Retreat is always about time to sew and making progress on projects.  The food is always great as well!  But most important in the fellowship we share with one another!

With Gratitude
It is with an abundance of gratitude we thank Jackie and her committee for making all the fun we had possible!  Many of us have chaired or worked on similar events, so we know how much time and effort is involved!
