NO TEAR PAPER PIECING

From the President
 
Hello Fellow Guild Members!
 
Hope everyone had a safe and Happy New Years! Mine certainly was busy. Did enough cooking to last me a long time and am ready to release cooking back to my husband.
 
I don't make new year's resolutions, but do plan on using the fabric I have on hand and buying only what I need to complete projects. Beverly has the WIP (works in progress) challenge out. I am afraid to search for mine. Over the holidays the flyer for the Leslie Powell Gallery arrived at my house, our heart challenge will hang January 11th through the 28th of February. How cool is that! Also there is a "Bugs" quilt challenge. So much for us to choose from.
 
See you at the next meeting. We have freezer paper-piecing going on, bring your machine. This ought to be interesting. I haven't done paper piecing in a long time, but I do enjoy it.
 
Bring your Drag and Brags! See you January 13th @ 6:30.
 
Peggy
