Speaking of paying, we're going to have a really large raffle this time, all donations from our charter member Helaine. The collection is a mixture of 30+ really desirable items that Helaine has created with some collectibles you'll find cute and ticket worthy. Plan to shop; there are lots of options to use for gifts or for decoration. If you'd like to pay for your raffle tickets with a check, we're trying that out this time. The minimum check will be $10 for 12 tickets, and sold by Kathleen. In addition, our presenter has a book she has created and will be selling for $19.95. It is full of her insights and tips on creating sewing projects. 
Spring is here with all its colors, breezes, and new fun. See you soon at the Fling.
