October Meeting Notes 2012


Minutes of Oct. 25, 2012 Fundy Quilters
Information on the Jelly Roll Workshop with Jan Weedon was shared.  Janet showed a sample of a finished quilt.  The workshop will start at 9:30.  Bring finger food to share. Janet will make a big pot of soup and we will have a potluck lunch.  There is no charge for he workshop for members . Non-members pay $20.00 ( which will make them paid up members of Fundy Quilters) 

Our November meeting will be a Quarter Quction. Bring something to auction and some quarters for bidding. Our charity this year will be the Berwick Legion.  Our spring fundraiser will be for the IWK. People can donate items for a table at the Centreville Baptist Church Quilt Show in May 2013.

Janet showed the finished tree skirt we made for Grandview Manor.
We took in fat quarters to send to Pat O’Brien.
The fat quarter flannel draw was won by Heather. Next month the fat quarter theme will be Christmas or snowman prints.

We discussed the challenge quilt project and we decided to use The Essential Quilt Sampler Book by Lynn Edwards. Janet has ordered copies for everyone who asked for one. The price will be $23.69 each including tax and delivery.
We decided to buy something called bed height lifters to put under our cutting table at the manor. This will make it easier to cut out fabric there and we can store it in the tub we keep there. Janet will find out where to buy it. ( moved by Ann and seconded by Heather)
Show and Tell:
Molly had 2 runners made with “Little Twister” tool and also a wall hanging of a cat with a sewing machine
Ann showed a Puppy Quilt
Janet showed a Halloween wall hanging
We also decided to reinstate the snack at the meeting.   This is to be a very light snack—and Janet will bring the tea/coffee each month.
