It was great to see 18 of our members (well, most of them showed their faces) on Monday’s 6:30 pm Zoom call.

January 11 happens to also be the birthday of our president, Karen!

We (faintly) heard the birthday song while members flashed words from their screens. Thank you to:

  • “Happy” Rosemary
  • “Birth-” Cindy
  • “day” Beth
  • “to” Jane
  • “you” Peggy
  • and “dear Karen” Karen T.

for participating! We all wish you the best, Madam President Karen!

Charity Quilt

Jane, Rosemary, and Lynette are leading our effort to make a quilt to donate to St. Jude Children’s Hospital annual raffle fundraiser. This team has decided we’ll make the Snap Scrap Quilt by QuiltsfortheMaking. Members who indicated a willingness to participate have already received or will soon receive a block-making kit with detailed information. If you would like to help make the quilt, email Rosemary. Thanks!

See you February 8 on Zoom!
