We seem to like sewing and shopping

• Our July non-meeting-sewing-only day found 15 of us getting together to stitch and swap stories.

•  A bunch of the gals went on a cross-border shop hop last Friday.  I have not heard any reports of them getting thrown in the hoosegow trying to smuggle excess fabric back into Canada, so I guess they were all able to lie with aplomb stay within the legal limits.  :-)

• Scrappy Club will meet July 28th.
• Our get-together with the Caledonia, NY guild to exchange our Quilts Of Valo(u)r Challenge quilts will be August 9th.  There is a potluck picnic happening at the park near Chestnut Bay Quilting.

Summer!!

Before our season officially ended for the summer, a couple of our members made new aprons for the church ladies.

Some of the gals were away last week on a BUS TRIP to SHIPSHEWANA.  Do you suppose they bought any fabric?  ha ha ha...

They seem to have gotten some quilting time in.

And it looks like they ate!

We have another trip coming up in August - a few of us will be heading to the USA to swap challenge quilts with our sister guild in Caledonia, NY.  I guess that summertime is all about getting-away-from-it-all.

For July and August we don't have a regular meeting, but we DO still get together in the daytime for our sewing days - 9:30 till 4-ish.  The second Wednesday.  Bring $5 to cover the rent. 

And if you're at the trailer...
