Meeting #94 (July 13, 2019)

Hello modern quilters! We missed seeing you all in June. We've got lots to catch up on, and our agenda is jam-packed with fun and information this month, so make plans to join us. This month, we'll also celebrate our 9th anniversary, so leave some room at breakfast for treats. :)

Date: July 13, 2019
Time: 10 am-12:30 pm
Location: The Heights
8001 Dale Ave., St. Louis, MO 63117
*Childcare available, please see info here*

**Note: The west parking lot at The Heights will be closed until at least the fall due to renovations taking place in the building. We should be fine, but you might want to give yourself a few extra minutes to arrive on time. The main (east) lot remains open. Additional parking is also available near the AB Green Park on Laclede Station Road and Dale Ave.
