Holiday Potluck/December meeting

    • It’s a party! An email from Amy via Sign Up Genius was sent to create a food checklist for everyone to see who and what people are bringing to the party.

Special Guest: Cliff Peterson was here!  He contacted the NJMQG after his wife Myra had sadly passed away. Myra started a quilt but never did get a chance to finish it so Amy took the pieces she had done and finished the quilt top. Krishma long armed, bound, and made a bag for the quilt out of the remaining pieces. It was a beautiful tribute to Myra.
