For our education portion, Rebekah will demonstrate how you can download quilting (and other) magazines from your local library.

We had another informative and wonder monthly meeting.  Here are a few snapshots of what went on during our time together.

Those DAM Girls had another wonderful meeting tonight.

We had one guest to attend our meeting, Haley from the Ann Arbor Modern Guild.

12 of the DAM Girls are participating in the Tulsa, OK Modern Quilt Guild. We are swapping pillows and our swap partners were passed out today. The next steps is for everyone to create Mosaic Inspiration Boards on Instagram so that your partner knows what style you like. Our swap projects are due the end of August.
