Old Business
Cancer Quilts Update
Susan brought the finished quilts, complete with labels, to the meeting and sent them with Cheryl. (7-8 quilts) Cheryl and Linda V will arrange a time to get together and take a photo of each quilt and present them to FirstLight in Mora.
It was agreed that we would have Cheryl purchase label paper on her next trip to Duluth and she will be reimbursed through our group funds. Also, Melissa will work out our master label so that we can try to fit 4 labels to a sheet.
Quilt tops were distributed to Susan and Linda B for quilting and Sharon and Linda V are on standby for binding.
Goal
To complete and donate 10 quilts to Mercy and 10 to FirstLight each year, unless more are requested.
