Modern Bee Update

Just a note to remind those in the modern bee to bring your circle quilts to the meeting this Saturday.

Also, a reminder that the Modern Bee will be meeting next Wednesday February 18 at the Talahi Community Center from 1-4 in the afternoon. (532 Quarterman Dr.) All are invited. We’ll be working on our new modern/traditional quilts. Bring your machine, fabric, etc.  It will be interesting to see what everyone has decided to do. Also bring show and tell things to share (quilts, articles, books, etc.).

If you weren’t at the last meeting feel free to join in, we’ll bring you up to date. Just bring some fabric you love and your machine.  You’ll get plenty of ideas from everyone else.

See everyone Saturday and then next Wednesday.

P.S. Remember there’s a $3 room fee.

Layer Cake class spot / no Linus blankets Saturday

Hello Guild Friends,

This is Ellie from Project Linus. I won’t be able to attend Saturday’s meeting because I have to attend a funeral. Please hold on to any Project Linus blanket donations you might have brought to the meeting. You can also drop off any donations at Unwind Yarn and Gifts or Sew Much More.

I also won’t be able to attend Saturday’s Layer Cake workshop, unfortunately. Would anyone like to “purchase” my spot from me?

Let me know at elliegrix@gmail.com or 573-631-2571

Thank you all!

 

Ellie

Gift for Children’s Hospital Nurses

Hello, Guild Members!

 

I’ve received a request from the Child Life Manager at Memorial Health Children’s Hospital. She’s my contact for Project Linus deliveries to the hospital, and she would like help to create gifts for her staff:

Hi,
I wanted to ask if you know if someone would be willing to make 10 weighted eye masks to share with my child’s life team? The team has been working short-staffed, help so many children who are very ill, and families who have lost a child. I think including a homemade item for our March staff meeting would be great. I have the supplies for the aromatherapy piece and would be happy to contribute to fabric if someone has the capability to create them? Please let me know your thoughts. Thank you for all you do, Kristen
If you’d like to make these heart-shaped weighted eye masks, send me an email and I’ll pass you along to the rep at Memorial.

Thanks!

Ellie
