2009 CMQ Meetings:
October 20 - CMQ’s own Judy Sandman will be presenting
a new quilt trunk-show titled, "Not Really Ugly Quilts".
Judy has asked CMQ members to donate some tired and "ugly" fabrics
to turn into quilt masterpieces!
November 17 - Join us for light snacks, fellowship with
other quilters, and time to work on some of our holiday sewing
projects. Also, Diana Forrester will talk about the process
of writing the book, The Guild in the Granary, and two other
books she has in the works with Mary Clark and Janis Biggs.
December 15 - Holiday pot luck.
The Columbus Metropolitan Quilters guild is raising funds to help underwrite expenses for the Ohio State School for the Blind Marching Band trip to the Rose Bowl Parade in January 2010.
Donations will be accepted at the sign-in table for the next several meetings. It is a great honor for the band to be invited to participate, and CMQ members are happy to support this exciting, once-in-a-lifetime experience for the band members. |
