We had a great meeting in April working on our community service Quilts for the Veterans Integration Center. Eileen and Bev presented a Quilt As You Go style strip quilt and the sewers did a great job of completing or nearly completing their quilts. Bring your finished quilt to the next meeting and we'll get a group photo for this blog.
In April 2017 Nancy sent a box of 50 school bags (because that's what fit in the box) and still has some to begin the collection for next year. We're sure they will enjoy receiving these as they told Nancy their goal this year was 50 bags. Good going Over The Mountain Quilters!
The Great Outdoor Quilt Show presented by Thimbleweed Quilters is Sunday, April 23 at the Veterans Memorial Park in Rio Rancho 10am-3pm. There will be over 200 hundred quilts displayed, vendors, and music. Admission is free.
Albuquerque Fiber Arts Fiesta happens on May 19, 20, &21. This is the largest Fiber Arts Shows in our area and features displays from 18 different Fiber Arts guilds, a juried quilt show, vendors, classes and more. Please see http://www.abqfiberartscouncil.org/fiesta.html for more details.
We'll be back to working on the Row, Row, Row Your Quilt during the May meeting.
Happy Stitching, Holly P
