May minutes and June meeting reminder

The recommended Senior Services donation for June is a couple of cans of high quality proteins such as tuna, salmon, chicken, ham, and/or peanut butter.  Easy open cans are a plus.

Belva is coordinating a reusable grocery bag swap.  These will be due at the August meeting.

The raffle quilts will be completed soon.  Each member is being asked to sell $40 worth of raffle tickets.  There will be opportunities to sell tickets at community craft shows this summer and fall.

The June meeting will be on Tuesday, June 25th at 6:30.  We will be hosting Kitty Wilkin, the Night Quilter.  She will show her work at the meeting and on Wednesday she will be teaching a workshop on quilt photography.

On Friday, June 28th, from 5 pm until ? we will have a sew-in at Village Fabrics featuring your handwork projects.  There will be a few Bernina sewing machines available for use.

The July meeting will focus on your suggestions for handmade Christmas gifts.  Please bring projects to show and the instructions to make them.

During the August meeting we will host Claudia Martinez of Snuggly Monkey from Durham, NC.  Claudia will be showing us her embroidery techniques.

We hosted Kim Lapacek of Persimon Dreams and Project Quilting.  Much of her work incorporates cut work and beading.  Her weekly quilt challenges begin the first Sunday in January.
