NEXT MEETING: Our next meeting will
not be at the usual day and location but rather will be on Saturday, April 9 at
Striped Light in North Knoxville. We'll work on a project for our upcoming Quilt Show. Please arrive no later than
10:30 and plan on staying for 3 hours. Bring water and snacks (if you
think you'll get hungry) and a jacket if it's supposed to be cold. This will be a free, creative class for KMQG members that we hope everyone will take
advantage of.
