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!
