October 7 Meeting

 

 October 7th Meeting - How Do You Find the Time by Laura Hartrich 

 

Laura will share how other quilters manage their sewing time, how they carve out moments, and how they think about time spent on their craft at various seasons of life. This will be a fun exploration of how others manage to make time for making, and will provide some realistic inspiration for how we can make the most of our precious time. 

 

Bring FQ for FQ Project Swap if still want to participate, toiletries for community engagement project, workshop &/or retreat fees, flying geese block study, and don't forget show & tell!
