I do and I love it! In fact, in just a bit, I am leaving for the first part of a class a member is teaching (free), One Block Wonder. My supplies are all packed!

Our dues sre $20/year. We have about 60 members; generally half to 3/4's of that number show up for our monthly meetings (always the 1st Monday of the month, 7 PM). Meeting follows Robert's Rules, then a show and tell.

We have a monthly sew-in also, which is a nice chance for us to gather and work on whatever we'd like w/out being interrupted.

A charity quilt every two years, one year to chose quilt, recipient of proceeds, start making, then the 2nd year we finish, sell tickets. We are also starting more service projects, chemo caps, walker bags, bags for DSS to provide for children who are being taken from homes.

The December and June meetings are held at a local Sr. Citizen residence. Residents are invited to join us; dish to pass dinner and show and tell. The December one is also a gift swap, homemade only.

We have a great program committee, and I'm really looking forward to this year!
