Tacoma May 2, 2018

A Gorgeous Spring day Tacoma Lakes Quilters met
 for our business meeting.
We are winding down for the summer months. We have a chapter challenge with a reveal in June that will be displayed at Maine Quilt Show in July. We are doing a block of the month and have a work shop to demonstrate how to put odd blocks together.  A planned bus trip in August out of state. Getting all the nuts and bolts in place for our quilt show in the Fall. And of course, all the run of the mill things we do monthly. Always lots to discuss.

We have Show 'n Tell the first meeting of the month.  We have many quilts donated to NICU (Neonatal Intensive Care Unit) for newborns. And also some finishes of Modern Quilts workshop we had last time plus some other beauties.
