The store opens at 12:00 p.m.

Lori is going to talk about how to square your quilt and how to take the waves out of those borders.

Quilters' Day Out: For the first time in a number of years the decision was made to participate in Quilters' Day Out with a table in the guild room. We still need a couple of volunteers to sit at the table for one hour slots on March 14th to talk to quilters with questions about the group. More on this at the meeting.

If you are willing to share your work, please bring some samples of things you made to the meeting to display at the booth. We ask that you make sure your name is on the back of your piece (even if you temporarily pin it). There will also be a signup sheet to help us track loans.

QDO’s charity this year is First Responders. They are collecting Children's Quilts to hand out on calls.

Registration for UFO Challenge (details in Guild Happenings below) is available through April.

Angelique showed us the spectacular custom quilting she did on our guild’s group project that Julie organized for us this year. We will be exhibiting it at the state fair this year, then donating it to a charity. We have a potential idea brewing for our next group quilt. Everyone did a great job on this!
