For those who love to relive our meetings or find that one quilt from Show & Tell – we are
happy to provide you this month’s updates.  The Show & Tell is very often the highlight of our meetings – so don’t miss that.  And this month’s program provided by local artist Peggy True, was both inspiring and uplifting.  SYMMETRY!!

I’ve been trying to send out notification that the January postings have been finished.  However, I’m not getting notification.  Hopefully, you guys are getting it.  Let me know.  In case you are just now getting this notice – the updates are in the post below.

We started out the new year without the face of Janet Daniels bringin us to order.  After two years – this is quite a change!  Welcome to our new President – Susan Hall.  What a great meeting.  It was one of the most attended meetings I can remember.  The Show & Tell was superb.  The Program was enlightening & impressive.  And I have a few general pictures of meeting as well.

An exciting Holiday meeting included a marvelous Show & Tell, a delicious Potluck, a wonderful Mug Rug exchange and the Installation of the 2017 Board.  This meeting was packed with all kinds of things to savor – from great food to beautiful quilts done by our members.  And if you didn’t catch the sample of January’s Workshop – look at the post directly below this one.

Workshop with Denise Green of Holly Dee Quilts of Luling, is set for January 14, 2017.  She will be teaching the “Cactus Flower” pattern using paper foundation piecing.  Very little space is left – so make sure you contact Kathy Smith quickly if you’re interested.

Another month in the books – another great meeting.  Marie put on another spectacular show as the “membership lady”.  There was a round robin reveal.  The Show & Tell offered more proof of member talents.  And the program offered by Cynthia Regone looked terrific.

As promised at the meeting – I’ve entered everyone’s email that I can gather from last year’s membership list.  That means some of you getting this are no longer members or just plain don’t want any kind of updates, auction news, charity bee stuff, etc.  If that’s true – please just let me know.

Some won’t get this because they weren’t on the membership list last year.  I’ll try to add new members as I become aware.  Everyone is signed up for Updates, AHQG Auction & Uncategorized.  The Uncategorized is necessary as we often forget to put topics on our posts.  Also – will be working with Joanne Krepps on getting a good list for Charity.  If you were already signed up for the Charity blog – you will continue to get any new postings from Joanne.

Our meeting this month brought the feeling of fall along with the thrill of winning (chinese auction). Take a peek at the photos from our meeting here.  When your’e done with that go here to see the pictures of some the members great talents on display at the Show & Tell here.  If you’ve misplaced your newsletter your can find it listed along with the correction page on the Newletter page – here.

Here are the postings from this month’s meeting.  We had a great meeting – eating salads – go here to see those pics.  Of course, we had our Show & Tell – which featured (well, at least it included) yours truly – go here.  And go here to see our President’s BIG REVEAL  and finally – I’ve added a post below which features some interesting work on a project to replace paper towels!  (if you don’t see the post below – click here)
