In Stitches

18 June 2007

Hi, gang! I am finally creating a blog for all of us to post to. I will email you with the access and password as I only want guild members to be able to write to this blog. Anything you want to tell all of the members, just post it here. We can all check it at our leisure to see if there is anything new! I will be posting our minutes here after each of our meetings. I will also try to figure out how to post pictures so we can "show off" our quilts.

This week end I finished making the blocks for 4 or 5 charity quilts. I will try to get them put together before our next meeting...5 July. Remember that we will be meeting at Cathie Zimmerman's house. If you need directions, let Cathie know. I think we will still be working on the charity quilts. I'm hoping to have the ones I'm doing up to the point that just the handwork on the binding remains.

Beginning in August I think we need to start on something else. If you have suggestions of what you'd like to do...just post it here. We can make our decision at the July meeting. If we need to do more work on the charity quilts, we can either meet on a week end or work independently. Once we finish these Anna can set up a time for us to deliver to the Burn Center and take our tour!

Also in August...bring any ideas you have for a block exchange for Christmas (colors, size, focus fabric, theme, whatever). We'll vote on it in August...so be sure to attend!!! Also, we will need a good count of how many want to participate so we know how many blocks we have to make!

Well...see you all on the 5th! And have a safe Independence Day!
