June Picnic Meeting

So nice to see so many friends at our picnic today. Did anyone take a count - I think it may have been close to 25. The picnic shelter provided us a nice space to spread out and we had a great show & tell. Margaret took pictures - there were some really wonderful quilts. Vicki collected about 20 quilts to deliver this week. Our veterans are going to get some really nice ones - thanks again to everyone for piecing tops and a special thank you to those who machine quilt them. My picture taking wasn't great today - this was taken before we had a full house. Margaret showed me how to use the panoramic setting on my camera and it gives you an idea of what a great space we had. We decided to plan on having our regular July meeting, at the picnic shelter. Mark your calendars for 6:30 p.m. on July 14. Instead of a pot luck dinner, we will bring our own sandwich/salad drink. We're keeping it easy! In the very unlikely event that Hanover Parks & Rec opens up, we could move into our building.
ALSO: bring non-perishable food for W.H.E.A.T. - Cathy says they especially need small cans of tuna and 16 oz. jars of peanut butter. We'll send out a reminder (or two) before the meeting.
We said goodbye today to Diane who joined us 5 years ago because she wanted to make charity quilts. We will miss you, Diane, but know you will find your place in the quilting world in Tennessee.
So nice to see everyone again!
