May Quilt Meeting

The May meeting was exciting and the last meeting of the year. We enjoyed having a lucky draw for our "Think Pink" quilt, our Rag quilt challenge, usual show and tell and a nice pot luck after. The next meeting will be in September with a new Quilt Guild Board. Enjoy your summer off...see you in September.
