Meeting Thursday 15^th.September

 

Here we are starting the tenth year of Loddon Quilters.16 of the members who joined in September 2007 are still members, plus 7 who joined in October 2007. Now we have a waiting list!

Thanks to everyone for making Loddon Quilters such a success.

The challenge - for the tenth year of Loddon Quilters.

 

How many things/events/memories can you think of associated with the number ten and our ten years of Loddon Quilters? The challenge is to represent your idea on a 10” quilt block. The ideas are flowing, keep them coming……………..

 

Thank you to the volunteers who have started putting together the Linus quilts.

 

We enjoyed a trip down memory lane when several members brought the first quilts they made at Loddon Quilters – the Loddon quilt and the sampler quilt – for show and tell. As always we marvelled at the talent we have in the group and the continuing work everyone produces.

 

Subscriptions will be held at £18 for next year. We would like all subscriptions in either this month or next (September/October), if that is a problem please let one of the committee know.

 

This month we hold our AGM, it’s an opportunity to look back at the year and forward to next year. We like to keep it informal and not too long! We shall be announcing the date of our next show!

 

Diana will be organising a Bring and Buy sale. Please mark your goods clearly with a price and name and remember NO PINS, safety pins are ok. 10% will be donated to our funds.
