January 3, 2013
Roll call was answered by "Most Valuable Sewing Tip".
The guild welcomed Julie Traxson as a new member.

SHOW AND TELL 
Peggy showed us her completed BOM quilt from 2012.  It was beautiful!!


Peggy had also made a great bag.
                                       


Ruth had made many scarves in a  variety of colors.


It was a pleasant evening among friends.


Block of the Month
Ruth won the drawing for the block of the month for having made a luggage tag.  Next month's BOM will be a thin-strip placemat.  The example and directions are at the guild.
