August NCN meeting 2022

NCN met for our quick general meeting reviewing the happening over the last month. 

Community Service displayed their many fabulous quilts that will be donated and then members showed their newest sewing creations.

After a brief break we enjoyed a lovely presentation by Emilie Collens Illson of Button Down Designs.  Emilie displays many trays of buttons made from a variety of materials along with other items of like materials.  The audience was able to touch and examine the beautiful collectable buttons and learn the history of their making.  It was a delightful and fun evening enjoyed by all who attended.
