Notes from the President . . .
The November weather report says we will have cold temps – 20s and 30s – at night for the next couple weeks. Cold weather means serious quilting time as well as a season when we focus on being thankful for the many blessings we receive each and every day.
In the spirit of being thankful, I would like to thank Susan Bateman for her very gracious offer to quilt our Quilts of Valor for the 2020 Quilt Show. And also special thanks to Kathy Ott, Mary Schultz, Bev Fash and Mary Lou Nuzum for demonstrating quick and easy gift ideas at our October meeting.
Our meeting on Monday, November 11 will feature a Sew Day in the Fireside Room at the church. Come any time between 10 a.m. and 6:30 p.m. Stay all day or just for an hour or two. Bring a sandwich and beverage for meals or run out to eat. Our regular meeting will follow in the Fellowship Hall at 7 p.m.
Meeting highlights will be:
* Ugly Fabric Challenge. Bring your creations to share at the meeting. Be sure your name is on the back of the item and turn it in to Mary Schultz or Judy Mallonn no later than 6:45 that night. It will be displayed to be voted on during the meeting.
* If you took Laura’s Labyrinth Walk class in September, we will share our blocks at our November Show & Tell.
* And quilters who went to Cedar Lakes in October, bring your class projects for Show & Tell.
Remember: The most beautiful way to start and end a day is with a grateful heart.
I am so grateful for all of you – Marilyn

Following, from Mary Mahoney on show committee, about entering items from the various classes offered by the Tree City. Quilt Guild
It's a good idea to keep a list of the quilts you would like to submit for our 2020 quilt show. Please note as well, if that quilt was made from a workshop you took with our guild. We do have a category for workshop quilts and we'd like to keep them together at the show. Here is a list of the 2018 workshops to help you remember what might qualify in this category:Pat Hall's Rug classKay Nixon's Fabric bowl workshopLaura Noletti's Convex Illusion classStacie Miller's Market Bag & Mary Mahoney's No Sew Gift Bag classLaura Noletti's Paper Pieced Animal pattern workshopShirley Roger's 5 yard quilt
