MARCH 19, 2012

There were 20 women in attendance for the March mtg. held in the Barn.

We remembered Pam Clum in her loss with a condolence card and donations.

Jaylene donated several log cabin squares in reds and blues which the group began sewing into a quilt. Perhaps for the AFCEA scholarship program

At Melanie's suggestion for a new project to begin this year with, about 20 patriotic scrappy squares were produced by the ladies which were sewn into a quilt for the Fisher House.  Sandy Todd donated batting and Sarah Shell donated sashing for the quilt.  The Fisher House is a private-public partnership that supports America's military.

The quilt the group donated to Doggone Pets in 2011 raised $275.00

To date the group has sewn 282 pillowcases towards the Million Pillowcases project in which we are participating.

Judy Foreman asked if the group wanted to organize a quilt display for the Arcanum Old Fashioned Days held May 18, 19, 20th.  We agreed to the project.  Those that can, will meet Friday, May 18th at 9:00am at the Historical Society Building to help set up the quilt display.
