October meeting

President’s Message: 

It’s that time of year again, when everyone is bustling about getting ready for the holidays. Handmade gifts are probably on your to-do list, but when will you find the time? During the busy days to come, why not take a few minutes, a half hour or an hour or whatever amount of time you can find to relax and sew? If you can sew a little bit every day, you’ll have a project done before you know it.

Happy Quilting

Utah Quilt Guild Annual Quilt Festival was held and a huge Congratulations goes to Ruth Davis First place for Machine Quilting and Diane Miller for First place for Best use of color
