Next Hybrid Ocean Waves Meeting :

|
In answer to the work of the Member Survey Team, the members responded that while they enjoy the convenience of attending a meeting in their jammies, they would also like to interact in-person with other members a few times a year.
|
As such, everyone is invited come to the library in the Hammocks for much needed “sewcializing”.
The December 10th Program will feature an Ocean Waves member that will lead everyone in making Christmas Gnomes. This is the perfect project because a sewing machine is not required. A short list of supplies is available in Program News.
After the meeting is adjourned, several members will give in person demonstrations for how to make various items they are working on to sell at the BQE Quiltique. These items will also make great holiday gifts, so make sure you check out the member demos.
