Carol received a $225 per year quote from them. Leslie N. Made a motion to accept the quote. The motion was approved by the majority.

Pasty S. gave Carol info regarding a September 5th and 6Th "One Stop shop in Kokomo, Indiana. Carol will e-mail information regarding this event.

Show and Tell: A suggestion was made that the items be labeled and displayed for all to see with one or two members to be "showcased" each month. Barbara M made a motion to accept this suggestion. The motion was seconded by Mary L.
Carol tabled the motion so members could think about it over the next month. We will discuss at next month’s meeting.

It was also discussed to display the Round Robins instead of showing each individual one. There are 4 groups and it does take quite a bit of time. This would give us more time for Show and Tell.

Thank You Lisa T. For hosting July sit and sew.

Those going to the Fairgrounds to assist the quilting judges will meet in the Kohl’s (Charlestown Rd.) Parking lot Monday August 15th at 7:15am. Breakfast, lunch and drinks will be provided.

Carol noted when sending out e-mails there are several members who are bouncing back. She is working on that with the individual members.

The Shriners asked that we put the tables and chairs back into rows before we leave.(Back the way they were when we arrive.)

Liability insurance was questioned by the Shriners. They have insurance that would cover us, however, it was suggested by them, that we look into getting our own policy.. Carol received a $225 per year quote from them. Leslie N. Made a motion to accept the quote. The motion was approved by the majority.

Committee Reports:

Charity – Lisa T
Lisa handed out 14 quilt kits to be assembled or quilted. 7 quilts were turned in completed. Quilts need to be finished by Sept/Oct for distribution in November.....

Activity of the Month – Rachael B , Dianna S, Jeanne K.
August Activity will be an ugly fabric contest. Bring a piece of your ugliest fabric. Winner will win a prize. No, the winner will not win all the ugly fabric. Members might want to trade fabric. Ugly is only in the eyes of the beholder.

Maria O. Won July Activity of the Month - Blue and White Blocks.

Show and Tell: A suggestion was made that the items be labeled and displayed for all to see with one or two members to be "showcased" each month. Barbara M made a motion to accept this suggestion. The motion was seconded by Mary L.
Carol tabled the motion so members could think about it over the next month. We will discuss at next month’s meeting.
It was also discussed to display the Round Robins instead of showing each individual one. There are 4 groups and it does take quite a bit of time. This would give us more time for Show and Tell.

Round Robins, passed around for next round. Lots of beautiful projects in the works.

(Note from Carol)

Just a reminder to bring quilt books, magazines, craft magazines, cross stitch, knitting books/magazines/yarn, notions, and fabric that you no longer want and can donate to our Book Sale Table at Quilter's Day Out to our FEBRUARY MEETING, FEBRUARY 24, 2011 This is our last meeting before our big event.

As before, if you are giving fabric ~ please put it in a baggie or wrap in ribbon ~ not loose in a box. Our visitors will be grabbing and dropping; so, let's try to keep it as neat (as possible) for those who come later in the day.

As before, our visitors will give a donation for what they take.......a true honor system. I feel sure quilters will be fair. This is your opportunity to purge all those books, etc. that you no longer look at. You know that old saying......"your trash is someone's treasure." You know ~ that book you wanted to buy, but didn't because it only had one pattern you liked.

Anything you can do to help will be very much appreciated by the QDO Committee. (Carol Fridley, Lisa Thilo, Patsy Shields, Bonita Willman, and Mary Leon)

Thanks!
