New Charity Block
Pillow Case Program
The pillow case program has taken off, and there is a greater need for pillowcase fabric. If you have any you would like to donate or if you are planning to shop for some soon, Kerry is specifically looking for juvenile prints, coordinating solids, and tone on tone.
Programming
At the May meeting we will reveal the "Assigned Color" challenges!
Ongoing challenges are "Bag your Stash" and the "No Stress Pin Cushion Swap"
The retreat has been capped this year with safety being the top priority. There is a wait-list open. If you have questions, please ask!
