Several "end of the year" events are being scheduled, including our Christmas gathering. This year each member will make a decorative holiday pillow for a gift exchange. It's always amazing to see what our talented members create. We will also have some business to tend to with the annual election of officers for the Guild. Anyone interested in taking a leadership role should contact one of the current officers to be included on the ballot. (Contact and membership information is listed on this blog.) We welcome input, fresh ideas, constructive criticism, and mostly... participation.
I must say, as a beginning quilter, that I have received so much instruction from the many knowledgeable and experienced quilters in the TMQG, as well as unlimited encouragement. Sew Days are my favorite days of the month. There is something so comforting, so inspiring, and so downright FUN in sewing and creating with like-minded people. We welcome new members as well as visitors to all meetings, sew days, and special events like workshops and classes (some include a small fee to cover expenses).
Now, don't let the term "modern" throw you off. We mostly prefer modern fabrics and patterns, but we occasionally throw in some traditional quilting as well as applique and art quilting. We also like to create other crafty items like bags, pillows, and other items. We promote and encourage sewing and creating in whatever form you prefer. At the risk of being repetitive...it's sew FUN! Don't take my word for it - come sew with us. I warn you - it's addictive!
Sincerely,
