Savannah Quilt Guild May Meeting

What a great meeting we had.  25 members joined us for  a virtual meeting on Zoom.  It was great to see so many of our quilting friends!

Theresa Sapp, our President, revealed the President’s Challenge for 2020.  The title is Photo to Fabric and you can guess what we will be making from that title.  The instructions can be found on the website – click here.

Mary Bass held a presentation on Triaxial Weaving that is on the website Programs page during our May Zoom Meeting. She used ribbon and/or fabric to make Tumbling Blocks. It creates a 3D effect and she makes it look easy. Hopefully, we will have a workshop in the future when we can meet at The Woods again.

If you have any difficulties getting on the website, please email me at SQGnews@gmail.com.

Happy Mother’s Day!

Georgia Historical Society to Document Stories of Covid-19

Hi, dear quilty friends! I received this from a neighbor, Kathleen Moore, and felt like it was a great post and wanted to share it with you. The Georgia Historical Society wants to document how the Covid-19 was perceived and handled by Georgians. Click on the link and you will go to the entry for your Covid-19 story.
Georgia friends, I want to let you all know about the newest collection at the Georgia Historical Society and invite you to be part of preserving history. As we live through these unprecedented times we are all becoming part of a story that should not be lost to history. I hope that you will consider sharing your experience, the good and the bad, with the Georgia Historical Society for the COVID-19 collection at GHS and share the link on your own timeline so that others can learn about what GHS is doing and contribute their own stories to the collection.
