- For those that are participating, how is your Sashing Stash Challenge coming along? Did you know the due date has been extended to May 31st?
- Casey from the Member's Swap/Challenge Committee handed out everyone's blocks for the I-70 swap and we did a quick reveal to see the variety of blocks which participants are working with, remember your finished project is due at the July meeting. Check out the hashtag #i70swap to see what everyone is working on.
- A big thank you to Marianne Belcke, for presenting this month's trunk show.
- Our members announced several Wins! this month, and we encourage you to share yours with us next month. Did you finish a quilt, have a pattern published, receive an invitation to teach, or finally cleaned your studio...all of those are good things to share.
- Jessica, our guild's Secretary, talked briefly about our Sew-Ins at Janie Lou; which is a great opportunity to get together with a smaller group. The upcoming dates are May 7th, August 20th and November 5th.

Looking for inspiration of a different kind, the Missouri History Museum has an exhibit running which is titled Little Black Dress.
