At our June meeting we had representatives from the VA Interventional Radiology Department come and talk to use about how they use our quilts. They left us with a gift bag of treats and this note. I jsut wanted to post it here for posterity.
The treats are being put out at Sewing days and meetings until they are all gone.
Bring your favorite dish and lets all celebrate summer together!
The meeting is this Tuesday at 6:30. Bring your own beverage!
