Welcome to a new season

We had our first meeting of the new season last night and it was a great evening!! So much to look forward to on our Monday meeting nights!! We welcomed a new member, Isabel. And we had an out of town guest, Mattina, an exchange student from Sweden, who is staying with one of our members.
Show and Tell was inspirational, as always. We are going to try a new format for S&T this year - when we show our work, we will describe our inspiration, why we chose the fabric we did, and how we actually made the piece - this should be very educational!!
While surfing the net, I came across this great blog - check it out - http://freequiltpatterns.blogspot.ca/
Have you completed your guild name tag?? It was funny last night how some of us came with ours not complete:-)
Don't forget to work on your "Pillow Pals" to have for our Oct 15 meeting.
As always, we need volunteers to help the executive make Loose Threads the vibrant guild it is - won't you consider offering to help, whether it be doing a demo or organizing an event?? Contact me @ shemie@videotron.ca to let me know what you are interested in helping with.
Marijke will be posting the schedule and other info very soon. Be sure to check back often, and remember to leave a comment.
