Hello Everyone,
Lots of new pictures to see. Be sure to look under Finish-It Club and Fun Times as well as Show & Tell to be inspired. Our Holiday Dessert Tea was festive and exceptionally SWEET! Our Thimbleweed bakers went all out and we all had more treats than thought possible. Benee and Irene acknowledged and presented a small gift to each of the program leaders plus a special gift for me. 

Wow! I am honored. This gift of a Personal Purple Quilt is so special. Thank you so much to Beneé and the Thimbleweed Quilters for this lovely expression of appreciation. The beautiful label that Beneé embroidered says: “Presented to Holly Plugge from Thimbleweed Quilters for Continuous Exceptional service. Designed, Created and Quilted by Benee Kethcum December 2017.” I am grateful to be a part of this creative and caring group. I appreciate being wrapped in friendship. Hugs! 

I wish you each a warm and safe holiday season. There are no more meetings in December. Our next gathering is January 4, 2018 for Soup and Conversation.

Happy Stitiching, Holly P

Hello Everyone,
Thimbleweed Quilters had another interesting meeting today. There were some beautiful pieces at Show & Tell. The photos that Page G kindly took for me at the Sept. 21 meeting are posted as well. After the meeting 21 quilters brought their machines and worked on the goal of 100 doll bed quilts. We'll hear about how successful that was at the next meeting. The 25th Birthday Bash for Thimbleweed Quilters is the next meeting. Please see the Upcoming meetings tab for details on the project and what to bring. There will be Cake!
Happy Stitching, Holly P.
