November Meeting -- November 21, 2019

Hi,

This Thursday will be a busy day for our guild with quilt delivery and our meeting.

We will be delivering quilts to the Veterans Home in Jackson, LA. We will leave at 10 am from the O'Neil Hobby Lobby. There are currently 7 of us going, and Betty and Lou will meet us up there. It is not too late to join us if you'd like, just let me know. As usual, we will stop somewhere on the way home for lunch, so be thinking of your favorite places. 

We will have our monthly guild meeting at 6:30 at Broadmoor United Methodist located at 10230 Mollylea Dr in Baton Rouge.  Fran will be showing us how she does her quilts using the Scenic View pattern. 

Thanks,

Cheryl
