Quilter’s Message

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.

I have 2 extra rolls of Polyester Batting for sale.  They are full bolts and would be great for summer-weight quilts at $20 each.  Give me a call at 912-713-2258.  I really don’t want to load and tote them to the yard sale.

Thanks, Lanette

Hi Ladies!

It is with high hopes that this latest fix for the login issue will work.  This is one pesky issue!

There is one thing that you must do before you login.  You must refresh the page by clicking the circle arrow in the upper left hand corner of your browser.  Then put your username and password into the boxes.  Hopefully, you will go right to the site without the error.  Now, just be aware that some browsers are persistent with loading old webpages so do this before you login for awhile.  For those that are computer savvy, you can clear your cache to clear out old pages.

Let’s give this a go for a while and see if it solves our problem.  If not, we still have another fix to try.

Thanks for your patience!
