I am needing 24 hr in home care or a facility that can take both my parents. Prefer somewhere that take Medicare but not limited too that. My father is terminal and just came home from the hospital with hospice. My mother has advanced dementia that I am in the process of getting diagnosed . We had a plan of action but it fell apart. My brothers live out of state and I still work full time. Any suggestions and help would be much appreciated.
Thanks in advance,

Hello Quilters,

The Weekend Warriors will meet at the church this coming Saturday, May 16 from 10-2pm (or 3 if you like to stay longer). The church is located on the corner of Waters and Washington Avenues. Parking is best on Washington Ave. Enter the building via the rear garden.

Bring a lunch in case you get hungry. Microwave is available. There is als a fridge if your food needs to stay cold.

Remember to bring an extension cord, just in case.

I have a couple of books that solely focus on borders which I will bring in case anyone needs ideas.

Hope to see you Saturday.

Hello, Guild members!

Just a reminder that you can still sign up for the 2026 Scrappy Sewing with Patty fundraiser!

For a $20 donation you will receive a total of nine stash-busting quilt patterns (maybe more if enrollment is high! Two bonus patterns have been released already). They’re a wonderful way to use up your stash of odds and ends. I’m including some pictures of quilts that my mom has made with two of the patterns! How cute are they?

Register at https://www.projectlinus.org/scrappy.php and make sure to enter Ellie Grix / Savannah and Hilton Head as your chapter information so that your donation stays local.

If you’ve already registered, you can log in at www.projectlinus.org to access your patterns. Another one will be available on Saturday!

Last year this chapter ranked #8 in sign-ups nationwide, so I hope that the amazing quilters of Savannah will support Project Linus again this year!

And just as a reminder: if you participate in Scrappy Sewing with Patty, kindly do not share the patterns with other quilters. Project Linus is a non-profit run entirely by volunteers, and every dollar counts!

The Modern Bee will once again be meeting at the Talahi Island Community Center (529 Quarterman Dr.) Everyone welcome! We’re going to be starting a new challenge. (Although anyone still working on the last one should just come along and keep sewing.) The new one is focused on modern quilt sketches — little 8X10 improv creations.  Since it’s new, we’ll be spending time exploring ideas, existing quilts, and other inspiration.  If you’re ready to sew bring your machine and fabric. Or maybe you’ll just be sketching a draft quilt and testing fabrics. This is a start. In any case there will be lots of opinions to get you started. If you’re new to the group, this will be a great time to join.

See you May 20 at 1 p.m.
