We have been asked to bring canned goods to the next steering committee (NOV) as a good will gesture for Newington allowing us to use their SR. Center facility. We are requesting items for the October meetings and split the donations between Enfield Sr. Center and Newington as we have never done anything for our Center for the use of the room for Workshop.

Thou Shalt not Covet your best friend's Stash!

Thou shalt always have at least 4 ideas on your “my next quilt will be “ list.

Quilts made with love, age with time but never lose their warmth.

A quilt is like love: made to last forever.

A quilt is a blanket of love.

Families are like tapestry, woven through the years, with threads of joy and laughter, happiness and tears.

Thou shalt honor thy quilts by giving them only in love and not out of a sense of obligation.

Quilters Make Great Comforters
