President's Message - February 2018

Welcome Ladies,

What crazy weather we have had in January. I hope you could sneak in some quilting time and that you stayed warm and dry.


Judy Holley will start our "get it finished"  quilt journey with "What to do with sets of blocks."  We all have extra lotto blocks or friendship blocks in our stash.  If you have any quilts made with these types of blocks bring them to Show & Tell.  If you have any block sets you need help figuring out how to arrange, bring those too.  Judy will help with the settings.


The Challenge Committee: Connie Ewbank, Margie Bumm, and Suzi Montague have two challenges ready to present.  They will be a bit different than those in the past.  I think you will be interested and engaged in the process.


The January GSQA meeting was a successful effort. Thanks to all the guilds and their members who pitched in to help.  Many thanks to Sherry for organizing everything.  Did you register any quilts for the GSQA Show in April?  I do not have anything ready this year, but I hope many of you did. It's a great experience and you can learn a lot from the judges' comments.


I wanted to thank everybody that volunteered for a committee. Your contributions make the guild a better experience for all.


Finally, please keep Beth Jessup, Mary Ruth Fowler, Nina Delaune, Carol Hilton, Bebe Tulley, and Lily Willis in your prayers. Several members have suffered loss of family members and health issues.

I'll see you all at the meeting. Let's finish a project!
