December Meeting Recap

The group met on December 20 to wrap up the year with a holiday party, complete with mug rug and gift exchanges.  Very special thanks to the leadership team for a successful year!

There is a lot for the Capital Area Modern Quilt Guild to celebrate, specifically:

• 22 baby quilts donated to the NICU
• 2 speakers that we actually had to pay!
• Our first swap with another guild

We had some great items shared during Show & Tell this month!  Lois shared her husband's Christmas present, which was an elephant quilt made from a Charlie Harper design.  The quilt will hang in the Child Advocacy Center, where her husband works as a pediatrician.

We're modern quilters and inspired by modern methods of sharing quilting ideas.  Jamie Lindsley loves YouTube and shared several projects inspired by quilting videos including a ten minute table runner, place mats, coasters and coffee cozies.

Members are reminded to bring Show & Tell items to each meeting.  We love seeing what you have been working on!
