February meeting recap

There were 18 fiber artist at the GreatFul Threads February meeting with four of those being guest. It was a meeting full of creative energy.  Don't forget to let Jackie know if you can be at the Children's Discovery Museum Saturday, March 20 (a couple of hours in the afternoon) to help  children make zip bags. The children are such fun and so eager to sew on the machines. This is our golden opportunity to hand our quilting enthusiasm to the next generation!

Congrats to Nancy Packard. Her "Vortex" quilt was accepted to a show at the Quilt Museum in Texas.

I apologize for some of the pics  being blurry. It's a good thing I don't make a living as a photographer!
