Hello OCSG!

Our meeting is set for 10AM Saturday, April 12 at the Sunny Hills Church of Christ in Fullerton. Our program is the Travel Sized Quaker Sewing Roll by Catherine Theron. We will go through the kit together and begin stitching away.

The deadline has passed to order the kit, but you can still come and enjoy our birthday month with your guild friends. If you want to buy lunch, please use your coupon in the newsletter and send it to me by April 7. I will contact everyone via email to make a lunch choice from a selection of salads and sandwiches from Panera. The guild will provide drinks and birthday cake to all attendees.

Happy Stitching!
