September 4 Business Meeting

Tacoma Lakes Quilters held their first Fall meeting at Litchfield Plains Baptist Church at 9:30. Most everyone is there by 9:00 catching up on the latest news. We now have 40+ members and excitement filled the air as we paid our dues...picked up a morsel of food..looked at the new projects for the year that were laid out on a table. You saw  3 -5 gals here and there catching up on the latest news or exchanging quilt ideas..
Here is a tidbit of our meeting.

Three different ladies supply the snacks each month. 
You can see we have an abundance. This along with drinks.
