Meeting date: Monday, May 8, 2006,
7:00 PM
St. Paul's Lutheran Church, 301 South High Street, Fort Atkinson, in the New Fellowship Hall
Program:
The Great and Magnificent Fort Atkinson Piecemakers Guild
Bed Peel
All of
you members are to bring a favorite quilt for the bed peel. The quilt can be
one you
made; it can be a quilt made for you; or just a favorite quilt you wish to
show.
As the
quilt shows on the "bed", it will be your turn to tell its story. And
if you don't
bring a
quilt, you must put a $1.00 in our guild's treasury.

Secretary’s Report
The meeting
was called to order at 7:05 PM on April 10th.
Marilyn
Boyle was presented by Program Director Marlene Messling
to show
a Trunk Show of quilts. Marilyn is a master quilter and teacher.
Next,
the guild members did show and tell.
Terri
Borchardt, who is chairing the Relay for Life event, is asking for blocks
for the
Rose Bud quilt. Please call her if you are interested in helping in any way.
An
invitation to the Awards
Breakfast for the MATC scholarship donated in
memory
of Janet Miller was received by the guild and a representative was
chosen
to attend for the guild.
Quilt
Show plans are going well. However, we do need some help in the food area.
Marilyn
Bauer has volunteered to head this committee. Please call her at 563-3610 to
help
her. Having an appraiser come during the quilt show has been approved.
A
discussion was raised on how to word entries into the show. If you have any
suggestions
please call Kimberly Kreger.
The
quilt for Wally Miller did cost $230.00. This was used as part of the
program fund for a work night.
The
winners of Show-n-Tell were Chris Motl and name tag drawing winners
were
Chris Motl and Patti Filipak.

(From
the kitchen of Patti Filipiak)
Preheat oven to 350 degrees
3 cups flour
2 1/4 cups sugar
1 1/2 teaspoons salt
1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
3 eggs
1 1/2 cups milk
1 1/8 cups oil
1 1/2 teaspoons each of vanilla, almond extract, and butter
flavoring
1/4 cup poppy seeds
Combine all ingredients and beat for 2 minutes. Pour into 2
greased 9"x 5"
loaf pans. Bake for 1 to 1 1/4 hours.
GLAZE
1/4 cup orange juice
3/4 cup sugar
1/2 teaspoon each of vanilla, almond extract, and butter
flavoring
In small saucepan heat sugar and juice until sugar is
dissolved. Add extracts and
flavoring. When bread is removed from oven, poke holes in
the top with a toothpick. Brush on glaze. Let cool in pans.
Note: butter flavoring is found in the spice/extract area
of the grocery store in bottles,
just like almond or vanilla extract. Fort's Pick 'N' Save
doesn't carry it, but Woodman's does.
