dtreusch Posted March 30, 2014 Report Share Posted March 30, 2014 Hey Midwest Quilters. It's been awhile since we've been together. How about a get together at my house? I can't do next weekend, Easter weekend or the weekend of April 26th. Throw out some dates that work for you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jmcclannan Posted March 30, 2014 Report Share Posted March 30, 2014 That sounds wonderful! We'll be moving sometime in May but I will try to get away whenever it works for everyone else. It HAS been too long. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sheri Butler Posted March 30, 2014 Report Share Posted March 30, 2014 There's a lot on the Butler plate this spring/summer. Graduations, weddings, a deck to reconstruct (all dependent on weather for that. Need a 7 day no rain in the forecast for what we are doing to it), J is traveling for work, and I will need to be home when he is gone. We are hosting a huge pool party at our house for our former employee's we both used to work with. 50+ people. We are trying to finish up stuff at the house and prepare for that. Spring brings on very bad allergies/migraines for me,along with my fibromyalsia (weather inhibits a lot for me there too) and I NEVER know how i'm going to feel. With that said, if the weekend ya'll choose is open and kind to me, I WILL BE THERE!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dtreusch Posted March 30, 2014 Author Report Share Posted March 30, 2014 Ok. So the options are: April 12 May 3 May 17 or later.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chickenscratch Posted March 31, 2014 Report Share Posted March 31, 2014 I can do later. Not sure about May 17th. Definitely can't do May 3rd (state testing at school that week). We are going out of town Memorial Weekend May 23, 24, 25, so that won't work either. Let me know a date and I'll try to work around it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
quiltedsunflower Posted March 31, 2014 Report Share Posted March 31, 2014 I would prefer later also. My son is getting married May 10 and there is lots to do before that as you can well imagine! I'm so glad you brought this up. I was just thinking about it over the weekend. I have a graduation on May 17, also. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sheri Butler Posted March 31, 2014 Report Share Posted March 31, 2014 HI Mary Beth!!!!! Hey, Roxanne's husband just had a stroke this morning. I doubt she will make it anytime soon to a get together. Just thought you all should know, and put her and her hubby in your prayers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jmcclannan Posted March 31, 2014 Report Share Posted March 31, 2014 Ha Ha - this looks like it is going to be complicated. April 12 is good for me cuz I will be moving sometime in May and you know what that means. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stagecl Posted April 1, 2014 Report Share Posted April 1, 2014 I am in Des Moines now..may I come too? Where do you meet? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sheri Butler Posted April 1, 2014 Report Share Posted April 1, 2014 For the past few yrs, we've met at Julie's, in Bellevue, NE. Debbi has graciously offered her place, in Des Moines, this spring/summer, if we can all get it on our schedules! As always, the more the merrier...the more the laughter, the more the ....well, u get the picture! We share quilt tops or quilts we've recently done. We've brought tops that just don't speak to us, and bounce off ideas. Weve traded quilting designs, where we practice on the machine (taking turns)...we just "wing it" and it always seems to just work out FUN FUN FUN!!

quiltedsunflower Posted April 3, 2014 Report Share Posted April 3, 2014 This is really so much fun - and I learn SOOO much! I sure hope we can make this happen. May 17 works for me - or after. Let's figure out where everyone is coming from and see if we can work out a carpool situation. I'm in Cameron, Missouri right on I-35. I'd be glad to bring some sort of snack/bruch item, too.

Stagecl Posted April 8, 2014 Report Share Posted April 8, 2014 What about May 31st or June 7th? Any other suggestions? Memorial day is May 26th. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chickenscratch Posted April 8, 2014 Report Share Posted April 8, 2014 Either one of those dates works for me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
quiltedsunflower Posted April 8, 2014 Report Share Posted April 8, 2014 Either of those dates probably would work for me, too. Let's just let the hostess pick, and those can make it will all have a good time! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mswings Posted April 9, 2014 Report Share Posted April 9, 2014 I can make it most anytime with enough notice. It has been too long. Would love to get together with everyone again. Thanks Debbie for the invite. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
quiltedsunflower Posted April 9, 2014 Report Share Posted April 9, 2014 May 31st is better for me. Seems like there is generally less going on the end of the month that the beginning - but don't pick the date based on me. Everyone chime in here please!
