Bring Your Own Lunch and your show 'n tell

It has only been two months since our last meeting, but seems longer. We are looking forward to see all of you again and hope you will share any work you were able to create over this busy time. Laurel Cull has generously offered to host this meeting at her home.

We will have one of the 2012 "This is a Quilt" SAQA trunk shows to view and discuss. I have looked at them only briefly so far, but I think you will enjoy some surprises.

Please RSVP to houstonsaqa@gmail.com so Laurel will know how many to plan for.
