Do you belong to a quilting bee? If so, what is your bee's name?

My bee is a group of 8 fun-loving quilters and we're called The Knotty Quilters. Get it? ;o)

We meet once a month, usually at someone's home, or sometimes at a restaurant for a special occasion. We've done block exchanges in the past, but this year we're doing a row robin exchange. A few months ago we had a fabric exchange where each member brought a bag full from her stash that she no longer wanted. Then we just poured it all out on a large table and had fun filling our bags back up. It was like shopping without the expense, and no new storage space needed. We each went home with a bag of fabric that was "new". Anything left over was donated to our local Blankies for Adults program, who provide quilts to adults undergoing chemotherapy or dialysis.
