    Default Another PNW Get Together March 14

    I've been making noises about setting up another meeting for members sometime in February or March for a while now. I stopped by the Tumwater branch of Timberland Regional Library yesterday on my way home from my Dr appointment and booked a meeting room. Most weekend dates were already booked through March but I was able to get a good slot for March 14th. I decided on the Tumwater library because it has easy access and much better parking than the Centralia library where we had our first meeting.
    This should give everyone the address:
    http://www.trl.org/Locations/Pages/L...on.aspx?lib=tu

    Here's the map:

    The date is Saturday, March 14 from 12:30PM to 4PM.

    Here's the address again if the link isn't working for you.
    Timberland Regional Library, Tumwater Branch
    7023 New Market Street
    Tumwater, WA 98501-6563


    Our first meeting was very informal, if anyone has any ideas for demonstrations or discussions either on machines or quilting etc please feel free to say something. Also let me know if there's some detail I've missed about the time or address.
    I have space in my car for 1 more person if anyone from the south wants to carpool from Centralia.
    I hope to see you all there.
    I'll post this in the events section too.

    Joe - maybe we can put something together for when I come visit you. Though I'm thinking that will be closer to the end of March - or into April.

    I hope to make this one. Perhaps you could use this as a practice for the handcrank presentation you are planning for the Lewis Co. Fair. I've never seen a handcrank machine, only photos.
    I would expect you to be going home with more machines than you come with, you might need that extra seat you're offereing.
