Our next meeting is Wednesday, November 18 at the Nanaimo Curling Club, 106 Wall Street. Doors open at 1:00 and 6:00 pm. The meeting starts at 1:30 and 6:30. Our guest will be Vivian Cannataro of Qualicum Beach, who will dazzle us with her beautifully handcrafted coats made from upcycled quilts. Each one is a unique creation, thoughtfully crafted with care and deep respect for the story sewn into every quilt. Get ready to be inspired by these one-of-a-kind wearable works of art!
At our meeting, you can renew your membership, and register for this year's workshops (both forms are in the newsletter). Please remember your library books, coffee cup, change for raffle tickets, donation quilts, Show and Share, Country Grocer receipts, and any items for the free table. A reminder that any books taken out at the November meeting can be kept until our January meeting. Members whose last names start with the letters E, F, G and H, it’s your turn to bring goodies to the meeting for our coffee / tea break.
As a nonprofit society, we can earn 1% on every $1000 in tapes that we save, in the form of gift cards that do not expire (This will help us buy supplies for our next Quilt Show).
The tapes can be from any Country Grocer location, for anything in the store, and for any amount. Please fold (don’t roll) the tapes and place in an envelope to prevent fading. There will be a box available at our meetings to drop off your tapes.
