Minutes from IMQG meeting Holiday Party December 3, 2017
Kim’s last question of the month was: What is your favorite Christmas song? Thanks for serving as our prez this year!
Treasurer’s report-Jayne is on grandma duty, but gave us an email report. She requests that you pay your dues if you have not ($25). Thanks, Jayne.
The Hurricane Harvey quilts have arrived in Texas, we received a nice note from Quilt Haus.
Our beautiful Charity Quilt is almost complete, to be sent to QuiltCon in February. Binding will be done by Lynne B., label by Cheryl M. Mailed by Lyla W. We discussed whether to donate the quilt to MQG, to be distributed to the victims and families of the shooting in Las Vegas, or to have it returned to us. We decided to have the quilt returned to us, and we will decide what charity it will benefit, and how this will happen. Val L. will contact Jerry Dietz of “Just Because”,
Valerie P. explained how she accomplished the sensational quilting on the charity quilt. Great job, Val, and thanks!!
Three Unquilts were unveiled.
Kim and Karen gave us a short survey.
We will give Quilters Corner a $50 gift card to thank them for generously allowing us to use their space for our meetings.
Party time and a most entertaining gift exchange ended the festivities.
Happy Holidays to all!!
