Some tasty treats for those who missed out on this month's Birthday Bee! This totally threw me as I thought it was the either the beginning of August or September! Neither seemed right! And it wasn't!.

July 07 Bee

Birthday Bee! Members share cake!It's the first bee of the month and that means Birthday Bee! Of course, this means dessert! We had two delicious cakes. One was a warm chocolate cake with chocolate icing. The other, a cool white frosted peanut butter cake! What a delightful contrast!


Member seeking advice on a quilt project in progress.
We do many things at bee, one of those is asking for, receiving, and giving advice on those ongoing projects. Here two members discuss the finer art of color choices, wonder if more blocks need to be made, or discuss the best setting. Its always helpful to have some input.


Members working on various projects.The other things we do is just hang out and work on a project (quilting, knitting, cross-stitch, embroidery), update the chapter blog, and even review our cell phone messages!


Lots of conversations
Or just hang out and chat about life, kids, trips, vacations, share herbs, etc...
Sharing experiences and herbs


Just a reminder that deposits for the Fall Retreat are due ASAP! There are still some spaces left.


That's it for this week. I hope you enjoyed the peek into our weekly bees. Please leave a comment and let me know. See you at bee!

What Is Bee?

Bee is the place to get to know other members, and to get advice and encouragement for those ongoing quilting projects! People are more than willing to give advice. Members' quilting experience ranges from novice to master.

Bee is every Monday from 7:30 PM to 9 pm at the "Top-O-the-West" Room at Goodwin House, near Bailey's Crossroads. There is no Bee on the second Monday of the month between September and June as this is the night for the big Monthly Meeting.

During July and August, we have Bee every Monday - including the second Monday of the month. We enjoy it so much we even have Bee on most holidays, so join the crowd!

The first Monday of the month is Birthday night. We celebrate all the members birthdays for the month with desserts!

Guests are always welcome. We hope you'll take the opportunity to find out more about the organization.
We are a nonprofit organization of quilters. We are a chapter of Quilters Unlimited and are located in Arlington, VA.
