May meeting newsletter

At the last meeting there were quite a few people who hadn't received the newsletter.  Julie sends them out in groups, so maybe a group had failed for some reason. So it was decided that I would put the newsletter information on the blog, just in case.
Unfortunately I'm having some computer problems, so I can't work out how to copy the newsletter, but I'll do my best.
The next meeting will be on May 6th where there will be a members sales table.  Bring along your items for sale marked with your name and the price, and we'll do our best to sell them for you.  The sales table will be open from 10 am. Hazel Ryder will be giving the talk, 'The Story Behind the Quilt'.  In the morning at 11am there will be a free workshop for everyone, called Take Two Stitches. You will need to bring a 10" - 12" piece of wadded and backed fabric which is a hand dye, tone on tone or plain.  Plus embroidery or fancy threads to either contrast to tone and embroidery needles.  Hazel will bring a few threads which you can buy on the day.  If you fancy having a go but don't want the responsibility of starting something new, you can bring the stuff and donate to Project Linus or Lynda will bring fabric etc for you to have a play on the day and hand the result back to her.
Any questions, email Lynda on lyndahill39@gmail.com
See you there!
