I meet with several other quilters, sewers @ our local senior center every Monday from 2:00 pm until 4:30 pm. We usually work on our own projects but we did make a raffle quilt to benefit the center. :D

It is such a good feeling to have so many sisters in quilting. We call it Tuesday Nite Stitch N Bitch

I met Amazon for lunch one day. We were pin cushion swap pals and only about 35 miles away from each other so we decided to meet for lunch and exchange gifts. We had a lovely dinner and have kept in touch since then. You will enjoy it and have a great time

This year I finally joined our quilting group at church. They use donated fabric to make quilts for local organizations and Lutheran World Missions. These quilts are tied and last Tuesday, I tied my first quilt.
The other group is ladies I used to work with and extended family and friends. We are working on our third scrap quilt and exchange blocks every other month for six to eight months. We meet just to exchange blocks. We have added something this exchange as we are making extra blocks for a donated quilt.
