GREETINGS GUILD LADIES & Gentleman!!!!
Our October Meeting is full of Halloween Surprises!!
1st    Lesa has stepped down as our President. So, as VP I step into her spot.
2nd    Ann C has stepped up with the nomination from the Board, to be the V.P.
            Ladies you are going to vote YEA or NEA or NOMINATE SOMEONE ELSE.
3rd    Kathy W., Treasurer, Pat P. Secretary, me - Donna B. President have all been sworn in during a  Board Zoom Meeting.
4th     Debi/JR has made sure we have our dates for meetings/QOV work Sat./ Thurs Sit N Sew/                            Community Sew.
5th    Kathy W has made those dates into an easy to read fun calendar & will bring them to our meeting                    next Tues.    Also PLEASE bring your Guild Dues to the meeting, $25 ( Debi/JR membership).
6th    Ann, our new V.P., has an awesome October Program for us!!!
                An Easy FUN FALL WALL HANGING. All ya'll need to bring to the meeting is your OWN  scissors.  Ann has provided kits for us all!! It just needs a little hand sewing to make it  complete.
7th    NOW AS TO HOW OUR MEETING WILL BE HELD.
        A.    We will follow CDC - COVID Guidelines/procedures.
        B.    We will be spaced out at tables (6ft apart), where tape is located. Please get /return your                    own chair.
        C.    Everyone will come wearing a mask, using hand sanitizer when they come in to sign in.
        D.    No Refreshments - BYO - so we can keep people safe from any contamination.
        E.    Yes we will have Show N Tell!! So please bring your projects.
         F.  Please understand that this is a work in progress!!!
8th    We need an AUDIT COMMITTEE to do last years financials. Maybe a couple of you lovely     ladies (who might be coming to the QOV Saturday which will start at 12pm) could do the Guild a solid & meet with  Kathy( she can guide the process). PLEASE THINK ABOUT IT. I'll be asking for 2  volunteers!!!
9th    Our November Program is usually our QOV PRESENTATION. Barb has informed me the the church doesn't feel comfortable in having it. So Barb has graciously continue/ will do individual presentations.  ALSO please bring your QOV dues to this October meeting.
                Barb has already paid for us thru the Guild and we need to repay the Guild.
        So, in place of QOV we have a presentation from Sherry Worley (Cotton Patch Guild, Greenville). She will be demonstrating /speaking on NEEDLE PUNCH EMBRODERY. 
                She will have some of her things there for sale. ( Easy Christmas presents!!)
10th    December is usually our feast of a Christmas Party. Well thanks to COVID it will be (again) BYO. BUT, our wonderful V.P. Ann is going to delight us with 2-3 games ( bring your own  pencils & paper).  Ann & I believe we all have been so creative this year that our 
                 GIFT EXCHANGE will be a CREATIVE HANDMADE GIFT that can fit into a paper lunch bag!  AND when the bags are put on the table Ann will write a number on it. Once it is opened, we will have a vote/ a judge decide on 1st, 2nd, 3rd place for creativity. Then the creators can tell us who they are!!!  IDEAS ARE: ornaments, potholder, coasters, hot pads, etc.!!!  Use your scraps & creativity to make something fabulous that can fit into a paper lunch bag!!
11th     Our Committee people will say a few words at the meeting (5min)
            Raffle Quilt - Sherri G                                      QOV -  Barb & Kathy
            Barn Quilt - Elizabeth                                      Hospitality - Terry
            Community Service - Pat P. & JR                  Door Prizes -  Terry & Karen
           
            Also past meeting Secretary notes & Financials are attached. Please read & bring corrections to meeting/email me.
12th    ( I like even #)Lastly, THE BOARD: Pres - me/Donna B, Treasurer - Kathy W., V.P. Ann C,
            Secretary - Pat P. really do wish that you will feel comfortable to come & meet in person with us. We are trying very hard to keep everyone safe.  We have taken all the safe guards that we can humanly/physically do. We miss seeing all of our sisters in quilting!!!

Got this from Mary Berry:

I have a brand new Accuquilt Go Me cutter that I don’t need.  If there is someone in the Quilting Guild that is interested in having it, I would sell it for $75 (half current retail). Please let your members know. It’s going to sit around here and gather dust!
