The May meeting of the Rivers’ Edge Quilters was held May 6 at 1 p.m. in the Craft Room at the Don Ross Centre. This was the last regular meeting for the 2015-16 year before our windup supper on May 26, although quilting will continue all summer for anyone interested.
All members were thanked for their generous donations to the craft sale held May 14 at the Territorial Mall with all proceeds going to The Lighthouse, a worthwhile local charity. Everyone was urged to spread the word of the sale and attend if possible.
Carol Johnson was thanked wholeheartedly for her instruction on how to make mesh beach bags and anyone participating came away with a completed bag that day. Many members made additional bags as well.
The colour theory class had to be postponed, so likely will be held in the fall. Other topics were a possible show in the fall and a shop hop if enough interest.
Show and tell followed the meeting and as usual members displayed many items to inspire the rest of us to get busy. All members should sign up soon to attend the windup supper so hope to see you all there and of course this summer and again next fall. Happy quilting!
