Announcements:  
Pear/Pair/Pare quilts are hanging in First Bank of Wyoming in Powell. Thank you Barb M., Jan W. and Jeanne for hanging them.  
There was discussion about where to hang them next.  Ginger will search out Cody venues and Barb M. will search out Powell venues.

Annual Challenge:
Signs:  After discussion, we voted on the annual challenge quilt.  "Signs" was chosen. The quilt is due at the July meeting.  It should be no larger than 100 inches in perimeter.  You choose to interpret Signs any way you wish!  Artistic freedom!

Monthly Challenge due at December meeting:  Your finished collage quilt from today's program.

It would include your name, email address, and phone.  If you want to be included in the directory, make sure that Jan has your information.  Hoarwest@gmail.com.  This directory will be confidential and shared only with each other.  You may OPT OUT if you like.
