Important Dates

Leslie's Letter
Dear Quilting Friends,

It’s that time of year again, but so far the weather might fool you. Hasn’t it been wonderful? I’m actually hoping for some nippy nights so I can finish hand quilting something that really needs to be done this year!! There’s nothing quite like sitting under a warm quilt when “the weather outside is frightful…” But I’m dating myself, aren’t I?

Many, many thanks for the toy donations that have come in for the Women’s Shelter. We will be helping to make sure that children who are displaced have a happy holiday. We also send our thanks to everyone who contributed to Clara’s Calling. By the time you read this, I will have driven a cargo van to and from Ohio delivering fabric and notions which will be forwarded to Afghanistan to help women there provide for their families. You are a generous group and I personally thank you all.

We have some great new offerings in this newsletter, including the new Groovy Girls Club which starts the end of January. The projects are great and you can take the series or sign up for individual sessions. We’re beginning another Civil War Block of the Month in February and a new Color Mastery series in January. Then there are the many great classes with my terrific group of teachers, including the all important basics. I hope everyone will find something that interests them and join us at the Patch for some sewing fun.

You may have noticed a weird, squiggly code on the new masthead of the newsletter. I am told by those in the know that it is very special and if you have a smart phone, you can scan it and it will take you right to our website. I don’t think my phone is that smart, nor probably am I, but we are trying to keep up with the technology, so I hope some of you will find this useful.

So as I close this letter, let me wish you all the best of the season, however you celebrate and a hope that we will all take time to think about our good fortune, even the small triumphs. As my great- grandmother always told me, “Just look around you and you’ll always find someone who is worse off than yourself.” Through your contributions to Project Linus, Clara’s Calling, Toys for Artemis House, the National Quilting Day Shelter collection, our Auction, the Pillowcase Project, we have all made a difference. Our Santa hats are off to you!!

Happy Quilting,
