April 10th Guild meeting info:
Dear Sewing Sisters,
I'm grateful for the milder temperatures and the beautiful Spring flowers - not so fond of the allergies though! I hope you are all doing well and I'm looking forward to seeing you all! Didn't you enjoy Sherry Gray's presentation on English Paper Piecing last month? We have very gifted quilters in our Guild.
This month we will be doing our Raffle Quilt Drawing. Please bring any ticket money and unsold tickets - we will need to make sure everyone gives an accounting prior to the drawing so that we can make sure every ticket sold is in the drawing. So the order of the meeting will be program, Guild business and then Raffle drawing at the end of the night. The word of the day is Sell, Sell, Sell!
In our Business Meeting we will be discussing our 2017 I90, our audit, our Anniversary Celebration in June, TAQG Rally Day and the Audie Murphy Day Celebration.
APRIL PROGRAM - Barb has organized a meeting on cutters - is that a term?! We will be showcasing the pros and cons of several models. Additionally, we will be cutting the last of the 4inch blocks needed for our TAQG Favor. We will be filling zip loc baggies with 2 - 4 inch blocks and 1 - 5 inch block in preparation for Rally Day.
What to bring:
2017 Raffle Tickets/Money = Bring your Raffle ticket stubs, unsold tickets and money
TAQG RALLY - If you want to attend the Rally they are charging $5 admission. We will have pins ($5), raffle tickets (1 for $1 or 6 for $5) and lunch tickets ($10) available for purchase so plan on bringing cash or your check books!
Bring your March Block of the Month. I will be emailing the April Block of the month and the March Meeting Minutes on Tuesday.
