A couple of thoughts about this week's meeting...

1. It was SEW good to see everyone!

and

2.  That went SEW fast!!!

For our next meeting, let's try to focus on our quilt projects first and then fill the remaining time with our normal chatter (once everyone has had a turn for Show and Tell.)

Thanks again for setting up the meeting, Deborah (and for editing this post for grammar and content!!)

Until next time...
Stay healthy and keep quilting!!!
