Saturday Guild Meeting

This is a reminder that our guild meeting is this Saturday October 14th, Southside Baptist Church, at 10 AM.

Cindy Strubbe would like one or two people to help her cut and organize pillowcase fabric after the guild meeting this Saturday. She has an enormous amount of fabric that she is drowning in! If you can hang around afterwards for a little bit and help cut, please contact her for more info at 330-322-2481.

If you took the Dresden Reimagined class, bring in your Dresden block to contribute to the Thank-you gift being made for use of the carriage house.

Shop Till You Drop!

This Saturday is the guild yard sale! We’re shoppin till we drop. Don’t forget…the meeting will start at 930, sign-in begins at 915.

We are continuing to sign up for the all-day September ‘Dresdens Reimagined’ class with Candyce Grisham. We still have five places we’d love to fill. We will continue signing up this Saturday and for the next week or two.  Please see Judy Walker if you are interested. It’s always good to learn a new technique!

We will have Show & Tell, but due to lack of table space, we’ll be unable to display your items.

Also, no Take-It Table this month due to table space.

See you at the sale!  Kim

August Meeting Time Change

After the July meeting there were some concerns regarding Show & Tell vs enough time to yard sale shop. So, in order to ensure that we have enough time for everything, the August meeting will start at 9:30 with Check-in beginning at 9:15. The Yard-Sale will be extended past noon if we need to. So there should be no need for us to rush through the morning. We’ll have a brief meeting first, followed by Show and Tell, then we start the yard sale. See you at the Sale!  Kim

Update on September Friday Class

I wanted to make sure everyone knows that we are continuing to sign up for the Friday Class, “Dresdens Reimagined”, on September 8th with Candyce Grisham. In addition to the class, we have also contracted with her to speak to us during our guild meeting on Saturday, the 9th. Candyce Grisham is a nationally known author, fiber artist and teacher. In this class you will learn to make the Dresden plate with five different finishes. Class Fee is $75 which is non-refundable. A special template is required. Detailed instructions for purchasing the template will be on your supply list. It is worth the time to check out her website at icandyfiberart.com.
Most importantly, the guild brings in nationally known quilters/instructors twice per year to teach an all-day class plus present a talk to our guild during the program portion of the meeting. To accomplish this, we set a minimum class limit and calculate a class fee to offset the cost for instructor fees, plane tickets, room & board, etc. In addition to the class fees, the Guild General Fund also helps cover these costs. For the Dresden class our minimum limit is 20 participants with a class fee of $75. We currently have 7 people signed up. We still need 13 spots filled to be able to move forward with the guild presentation and class. If you plan to sign up, we would like you to contact Judy Walker, in lieu of waiting until the August meeting. Judy will give you all the necessary information.
