WFQ Annual Meeting December 8th


The "Annual Meeting" required by our bylaws will be held Wednesday, December 8th, at 5:30 p.m. at the Home Town Cafe in Sedro-Woolley. Members are encouraged to attend! We will elect directors for the coming year and continue to plan our next quilt show!

Our membership year is the calendar year so dues are due again in time for January 1st. Our dues are $5 per year! Such a bargain. If you're a Skagit County Quilter and you want to join us, come to our meeting! We typically meet once a month until about February when things heat up for the quilt show planning and then we meet twice a month.

Word on the street is that people are making quilts in anticipation of our 2011 show, which will again be held during the first week in June. Where will it be? No site selected yet, but we're committed to being downtown with the Blast from the Past festival.

Our show theme for 2011 is "Blast of Color" and this promises to be a fabulous theme! A challenge is in the works for those of you who love to meet a challenge, and we have lots of other plans in store.

Do you know a business who would like to be a sponsor of our show? Are you a business who would like to sponsor our show? If you're targeting the quilting community for your advertising, this is the place to be. Contact us via this blog for more info.

Above is a photo of our recent presentation to the Sedro-Woolley Eagles Club for their gracious help in our search for a venue for the 2010 show. What will they do with this great quilt designed by Julie Anderson? We can hardly wait to find out!
