Tacoma October 2 2019 Business Meeting

Tacoma met for our business meeting on this beautiful October day. It is always a fun time pouring a cup of coffee..picking up a snack and catching up with each other. We are a friendly group and it does not matter who you happen to chat with you feel comfortable.

 We have lots of things planned for this year. Coming up Oct 16 is the 'make and take' meeting. Several gals have small projects and will share with instructions. There has been lots of interest to make that 'little thing' and leave with it finished or instructions as to 'how to' make. 

A fun project is our "Bucket list'. We look at a project and say, "What was I thinking" I have always wanted to make but never did ...so the challenge is to make the quilt, hanging, block etc. and completely finish by June to be entered in a drawing.

We had two demo's ...one by Brenda P demonstrating 'how to' of Yo Yo Makers and 
Donna M using the 'Twister  Tool' . 
And as always our gals have been busy and shared their 'Show 'n Tell'.
