On this cold wintry morning, guild members eagerly listened to Laurie Palmer as she demonstrated the method for making the beautiful block pictured above - "Chop Chop Block."  Several members brought sewing machines and some tried their hand at making the block, while others worked on personal projects. 
Ladies enjoyed the refreshments, worked on personal projects, visited with one another and made good use of the library.
On another note, the Executive and Coordinators met together to  discuss issues and upcoming plans, making it a productive and enjoyable morning all around.
Find the instructions for Laurie's Chop Chop Block here.

The morning began with our president Jannet sharing a Flying Geese technique.  Then, with our scheduled presenter cancelling due to illness, the morning continued with a great Show and Share from our guild members.  66 members and 2 guests were present and we all enjoyed the talents of our fellow quilters.
This was followed by a leisurely refreshment break - a wonderful Wednesday morning to start the new year!
