Buffalo Quilting Gals

Buffalo, Wyoming
Vol. XVI No. 6 2013 Buffalo, Wyoming

LAST MEETING Our last meeting was May 11 at Onderdonk Hall. After the business meeting members worked on the service project quilt and got most of it finished at the meeting. Cindy Zeiser got all the borders added so that Sherry Walter can quilt it. NEXT MEETING The next meeting will be on June 8, 2013. We will meet at 9AM at Onderdonk Hall. Bonnie Roth will teach a mini-lesson on sewing machine maintenance and then Anna Hutchins will show everyone how to make a double diamond book mark or section to decorate a table runner or place mat. The materials list will be sent in a separate email. Tracy Carlin will be picking up the finished service project quilt at 9:30. She will inform the Buffalo Bulletin to be there to take pictures, and she will have a couple of the board members there from the scholarship fund.

QW13 "Magic of Quilting" at Casper College, Thurs-Sun., July 11-14, has classes Friday & Sat. but also guest teachers, Trunk Shows on Fri & Sat nights ($10.00 each), and free Quilt Shows, and a free vendors mall. It can be a fun day trip, if not signing up for classes. The very last page of the brochure describes the Quilts of Valor 10th Anniversary booth, and Silent Auction. They are looking for red-white-and-blue fabric and batting donations for use during QW13 in the Drop-In QOV Service Project to sew Anniversary blocks, to help assemble tops, etc. Time to clean out our stashes for Flag Day in June for a great cause! http://www.wsqg.org/QW13/QW13Brochure.pdf If BQG members have QOV fabric, batting, top or block donations I will take them if they bring them to the June meeting, or call me before July 11 (620-9055). They can also just drop off donations while they're there if they're just coming for the day. Thanks, Vikki
