Announcements:
Next month we are having a Garage Boutique.  Members can bring items they want to sell.

The Blackfoot Library is having a book sale on April 18.  They will have lots of quilt books for sale. 


We still need more blocks for our 
Raffle Quilt, ASAP.
These are examples of the block:





This year we are doing a UFO challenge.  We get tickets for the "Unfinished Objects" we've completed.  Each month there are two winners.
Serena Yancy and Nancy Diaz drew the winning tickets today. 


Peggy Wareing won a thread cutter!


Jeanette Bowman won Best Press!



Some of the items made by members for charity....

We have made many of the blocks to make up this quilt. (below)




We've been asked to make bags like these to be hung on wheel chairs. (To hold wheels, so they don't get separated from their chairs during transport.)



Catheter bags


Adult bibs for nursing homes


Fidget blankets
