Due to continued restrictions for COVID-19, we held our first Virtual Meeting for 2021. We will continue this format until restrictions are lifted.
We introduced breakout rooms to simulate our “coffee time”. It was a great opportunity for members to chat and catch up. Members are encourage to check their email for the guild’s monthly newsletter and updates on our member only virtual sew days.
2021 Decluttering Challenge/Online Auction (March 2021)
If you are decluttering, we would like Guild members to set aside any fabric (yardage, pre-cuts, cut offs), books, magazines, notions, patterns, selvedges, maybe even UFO’s – neatly packaged etc. (anything sewing/quilting related) that you are willing to donate to the Guild. No item too small – we will bundle or create mystery bags! Information on drop off locations and dates will follow.
We started our new year with some great inspiration. Members shared a variety of original works, projects from patterns and panels with each artist adding their own personal touch.
Next Meeting: Thursday February 11 @ 7pm
