Hello everyone! We had a great meeting last Wednesday! It was very nice to see everyone and spend some time talkin' sewin' instead of holiday planning!
Next Sew-in: Sunday, Dec 8
Next Meeting: Wednesday, Dec 18 (not our usual last-wednesday-of-the-month, due to holidays).
No swaps at the next meeting, but there IS a Holiday Social Hour! Come to Pink Castle at 5:30, bring some treats to share, and we'll have a festive time.

Meeting Minutes:

- Fabric available if you need some to start
New Business

- So happy to report that after the meeting Stephanie and Pam agreed to be co-chairs! Thank you!
