Send me your
tips and suggestions. We
can all use a
little help at times.
Carol –
Newsletter, members please get my email from your book.
Theme
for August is “Hot, Hot, Hot”.
Hope
everyone makes a block!!! This
is your chance to step outside what you
might normally do and try something new.
Sometimes blocks may seem challenging, but
it’s good to learn something
new. Trying new
blocks will build your
confidence to make more challenging blocks and quilts.
If you
have checked out Library Books, please
remember to bring them back!!!!!!
If
you know of a guild member who is sick or has had a death in the
family, please call the secretary of the guild and let her know so
she can send a card. The current secretary is Pat Barlow. Please
call her on her cell phone as listed in our membership list.
