June Show and Tell, 2018

Our meeting...

Joan B conducted our last meeting of our official quilting season, and her last meeting as Coordinator. A new Executive will take their offices in September.  Reports were given by several committee heads.
Thanks were extended to the "old" executive members,  and the "new" executive members were introduced.  A few meeting details were discussed and the directions given for our AUCTION to raise money for Cottonmill Guild. Then:
