Tacoma Meeting - October 1

Tacoma Lakes Quilters of Litchfield met this morning with the usual flurry of activity. Our quilt show is the biggest subject as we endeavor to put all the pieces into place. It is coming together amazingly well with all the various talents of the gals...they are not only quilters but great organizers and helpers.
 We have the Fat Quarter Club which is very popular...How it works: Each month a name is drawn, a fabric of your choice, you receive a FQ from each participant. We support 'Food for Thought' a local school program for needy children and the 'Food Bank' each month. We are a group that has done a lot for the local community over the years plus charities that reach beyond into the state.
and it has brought great joy. We want to give back to our community by sharing with them the artistry of our members by having the quilt show in Litchfield this year.
