Tacoma - March 1, 2017

Tacoma Lake Quilters finally had a day that did not snow and we were able to hold a regular business meeting. It was good to see everyone. Lots of business taken care of...an upcoming bus trip....Planning an Area 4 meeting ...plus others things in the wind and will be sharing as they are finalized. The gals have been busy and we had a lot of 'show 'n tell'. What gifted ladies we have..
