What's New - Week of Jan 11, 2026

Next Meeting -  January 21, 2026 at the QPlex at 7 pm. 

1. Part of the program will also entail a small quilted item exchange that is totally voluntary. Members can decide to participate or not on a monthly basis. For January, the item will be a bowl cozy. People will need to place their bookmark in a paper bag for the exchange. They can also make more than one. For example, if someone makes 2, each item will be placed in 2 different bags and that person can take 2 bags when the exchange happens. The exchange is supposed to be anonymous. So bags should not be identifiable. After the exchange, people can find out who did the item(s).
