Club Notes - August 21, 2025

 Thanks to Mic for running the meeting for me today. Between taking care of Ray and going for some of my own medical tests this week, my schedule has been very full and it was good to have one less thing on my calendar.  

Here are Mic's notes:

There were 15 of us gathered in the cool of El Santiago Rec center.  As Lois was unable to join us while she is taking care of Ray full-time, Mic did the announcements and took pictures of all the Show and Tell.  Everyone took their show and tell home to return to Lois later for her counting process.  Mic will send the pictures to Lois for posting to the blog.

The tables were all busy with different projects:

·       Darlene suggested since she and Debbie had their sewing machines, they would make 9 patch blocks if everyone would help her pick out the squares.  They will share the blocks at the first meeting in September. 

·       Several others sorted through all the boxes and bins of fabric from the closet and were able to condense them into 4 boxes and two bins!!!  Everything was re-labeled and stored on the shelves in the closet for easy retrieval at meetings. 

·       The stuffing was brought out of the closet and a new batch of animals were ready to move to Ceal’s painting process.

Show and Tell:

Lenora Holze made a zipper bag.

Darlene Nudy made some 9-patch blocks.


Donna Rissman finished two more table runners.




She also showed some aprons




Eileen DiSanto came with several toys to be stuffed.


Ellen Hein brought a bunch of quilts that she finished the binding on.


This one was handed in by Diane Placek.




I believe these 2 were from Khaki Quilters.  (let me know if I'm wrong.)



Ellen made these 2.


The blocks for this one were made by Carol Riggs and sewn together by BJ Herter.  I added the border before quilting.


Ellen brought a few more quilt tops to be quilted.



Reminder: the rec center is closed next Wednesday so no meeting.  See you in September.
