Hi Ladies,
One open spot for our March retreat just became available. If you’ve been thinking about joining us, here is your opportunity! If you’ve been before, we’d love to have you back. If you’ve never been to our retreat, it’s a great opportunity to make new friends and sew at the same time! This spot is for a single room, with the option for lunch. The cost is $440. Contact Kim Hayes. 513-295-4753

At Saturday’s meeting, Peggy Caldwell will be passing around a survey for any input you might want to give for next year’s programs. These are the 30 minute presentations that are given towards the end of each monthly meeting. If there is a specific topic that you would like a presentation on, please let us know! We want to be able to present what you all are interested in. Thanks! See you Saturday! Kim
