Year: 2025

I am looking for a used serger. If you’ve been thinking about selling or donating  one, could you reach out? My email is hodgejennifer04@gmail.com.
Thanks so much!

1) Show & Tell: Georgia National Fair Editions
Bring your Georgia National Fair submissions so we can ooh, aah, and—yes—admire those ribbons. We can’t wait to see what you created (and hear the stories behind them). 🙂

2) Fall 2026 Retreat Paperwork
Thinking about the October 22–25, 2026 retreat? Please bring your completed registration paperwork to the meeting—we’re aiming for 30 attendees!

Guests / Non-Members Welcome
Have a friend who wants to come on retreat? Fantastic! Guests are invited, too. There’s an additional $35 fee, which also enrolls them as a 2026 Guild member—win-win: retreat + membership.

3) President’s Challenge: Savannah Squares
Bring your 16″ block—finished or in progress! We want to see your piece of Savannah, even if the last stitches are still on the to-do list

See everyone tomorrow.

Hello, lovely quilters! We delivered Christmas pillowcases to the hospital last week and they looked so pretty. Please bring your completed pillowcases to the guild meeting tomorrow so we can wash and iron them to be delivered in December. Thank you for continuing to support this project. Lake Mayer has set aside time for sewing/quilting of any kind on Nov 13, 14, 20th and 21st. Thursday times are 12:30 til 3:30 and Fridays from 10-2.  The new Greenbriar Community Center has opened and has textile arts on Wednesdays from 9-12. That center is just off Mills B Ln in West Savannah on Hopkins St. I will see you tomorrow at the meeting if you have any questions. Debbie Whiteway

Hello, crafters!

I have an abundance of yarn that was donated to Project Linus, more than I can store! I’m going to bring a bin of it to the guild meeting tomorrow. Take all you can use, keeping in mind it should be for Project Linus donations. Maybe you can make your own crocheted border blanket!

It’s time to share your creativity, your story, and your piece of Savannah!
Bring your finished Savannah Squares quilt block (16” finished size) to the November meeting for show and tell. Any technique and even a mix of techniques are encouraged.

Not quite done yet? Don’t panic—bring what you have! We’d love to see your work in progress and hear about your inspiration. After all, this challenge was never about perfection—it’s about celebrating our creativity and connection through quilting.

Each block tells a story of Savannah through your eyes, and together they’ll make a beautiful gallery of color, craftsmanship, and imagination. Whether it’s inspired by the marshes, squares, birds, blooms, or city skyline—we can’t wait to see what you’ve stitched.

And if you’re anything like me… I’d better get cracking! I’m almost finished with my piecing and appliqué, but there’s still quilting and binding in my future this week. (Who needs sleep when there’s a deadline, right?)

So gather up your threads, heat up that iron, and bring your Savannah story to share!
