April. Kathy York has 462 trunk show quilts and will need some help
mounting and labeling the quilts. If you are able to help, please send
her a Facebook message. Supplies for mounting the quilts have not arrived yet, so there will be a small
delay in scheduling. Kathy will email you when she has volunteer spots

Houston fabric drive and meeting on May 14
Houston SAQA Members:
You won’t want to miss our May meeting! We’ll
host a fabric drive for charity and fabric swap, show & tell and a
presentation on SAQA Exhibitions.
Date &
Time
May 14, 2016

Where
St. Philip Presbyterian, located on San Felipe
near Loop 610.

Look for the handmade SAQA Meeting signs.
Topic
1. Extended Show & Tell – Please
bring your current project or next project. Finished or unfinished is okay. Share
what you’re working on with our creative members.
2. FABRIC DONATION COLLECTION AND
FABRIC SWAP. Do you have fabric you no longer want or need? Bring it to the next
SAQA meeting. We will be collecting fabric to donate to charity. Please bring
your fabric in a box of some kind (plastic bags are too flimsy). We will accept
all types of fabric that is usable and unsoiled. All SAQA members and guests will
be invited to look through all the fabric and take what you want! A true fabric
swap – you might find some treasure. What’s leftover will be donated. We hope
you’ll participate.
3. Suzan Engler will present a recap
of the presentation given by the Exhibition Committee at the national
convention. This is an excellent opportunity to hear about the growth in SAQA’s
impressive exhibition schedule.
Lunch
Bring your
lunch. There is a microwave provided in the room.
