Our Spring Luncheon on March 20th was a culinary delight (as usual), and a fun social.
Quilters line up to buy raffle tickets to put in a bag for certain items they would like to win. Yours truly usually puts all her tickets towards an “Ott Light” – a desk lamp to use when you are sewing/quilting. Another lady (who shall remain nameless) is also trying to win one. Neither of us has (yet!), but we have won a fun item or two along the way. The $ earned is spent on community donations, i.e., Ebbetts Pass Elves, the Food Ban
k, Resource Connection, to name a few.
Our Spring Luncheon weather included rain, gloomy skies and a bit of snow. A perfect day for Candy to have her show! Her colorful quilts, wall hangings, vests and dolls certainly brightened up Independence Hall.

On another note…
We presented Anne Salem with her Comfort Quilt – signed by members of the guild. Anne is battling COPD and is not always able to join us. We have been missing her and wanted to let her know that!
