We know you all have been able to get all those UFO's done, right???
Lets try this:
1. Members send JR their 'sew & tell'  pictures and info about it.
2. Will be posted to our blog: farmersvillequiltguild.blogspot.com
3. Members leave comments.
(more ideas welcome, plz & if you need help with the blog we can help)

Yvonne won the Frisco Guilds raffle quilt. Remember at our Feb meeting Frisco guild was there selling raffle tickets for their beautiful Texas Quilt. pic attached. Congrats Yvonne!

Guild received a donation for our community service from Karen Smiths Cousin Loretta. She loves what we do. 
Thank you Loretta:)

Also can't remember if I shared the donation Gayle Romans son donated for our community service for masks we made for his company.  WOWIE WOWIE !!! Thank you Andrew &  Mechanical Partners Inc. we will be able to do a lot of good for our communities.

I wanted to share this nice note we received about masks:
Hello
We just wanted to tell your organization THANK YOU!
We had received masks from you and we really appreciate it very much.  They were used and loved. 
Thanks,
Heather 
Mayberry Gardens Assisted Living -Garland


If you are bored and want to do some community service we have kits!!! We have Project Linus & Rockwall Hospital kits.
Project Linus hasn't been able to meet and I worry they need quilts more than ever. Any questions reply and we will help, Thx.

On a more serious note, one of ours needs our prayers:
Elizabeth is having surgery 9/2 and needs our prayers. Best wishes Elizabeth :)
