Ann did the member spotlight showing many lovely family antique quilts and some that are almost done (except for the binding!) She also showed us examples of some beautiful costuming she has done. Thank you Ann.

Kindness Quilt: We have decided to include Pender County to Louisiana on our Kindness Quilts Donation due to the recent flooding here in North Carolina.
Wanda brought bags and boxes. So far we have 4 quilts, 1 each from Lois and Mary, and 2 from Donna. Bring any completed quilts in November.
Show and tell: Joyce brought her color crayon challenge quilt. It was lovely.
Mary showed her original design Quilters by the Sea challenge and talked about her creative process. Pictures are on our FB page.
Our November meeting is a sew-in. Bring your own quilt to construct or you can participate in the quilt Molly and Babs have chosen for us. Either way, bring your sewing machine, neutral thread and other supplies that you may need.
Lunch at Mission Barbeque was fun. Always good to continue the conversation!
