    Once a month on the third wednesday of each month, we have been meeting at the Hospital Auxillary bldg and enjoying show and tell and such. Thought we would let others in this area know about it.

    We have had over 20 QB members join us at different places. Now we have a place to gather to actually sew.

    Everything you need to sew and visit...just bring your projects and machines.

    You can pm me for address and info if you'd like to join us. It is in Granbury, on Hwy 51, right next to the hospital.

    Here's a few pictures of this weeks...

    This is such a wonderful thing to do. I need to find someplace like this for us locally.

    Most places charge and don't have room but luckily I am a member who teaches at the Senior Circle and they let us gather for free. Project Linus ladies come on occasion too. Hope it picks up and we get more qb'ers there. I know we have plenty just in the Granbury area. Hope you all see this. HUGS♥♥

    I am thinking your house???? With swimming after? LOL. YOu have a beautiful place to have one and lots of room. I may have some here too. My house is like an old B&B and lots of quilty things hanging in it. Lots of room too. Might have to have an all nighter or too. Can't get enough visiting with other ladies.

    You have a nice open space to work in. Mine is shopped up with doorways, couldn't get everyone into the same room

    Wish I could go. I am lucky though that we have a little sewing group that meet on Tuesdays to do whatever we want OR not!!!
