Hello Fellow Members and Visitors,
This year is starting with quilting in full swing for 2024 I hope you are able to join us. I have corrected the meeting and bee night dates (thanks June for the heads up, I love our team work)
First a message from our President!
Dear Rouge Valley Friends,
Hello and Happy New Year!
I have a feeling this year is going to unfold at lightning speed. December was (and always is) a busy time away from the guild, so before the year rolls away ahead of me, I’d like to highlight January’s “guildy” pleasures; some of which are happening soon.
The first Bee Night of 2024 is on January 8 (one week from today). It’s an easily made desk organizer, perfect for the quilt show boutique! Make three! I’m really happy to have an opportunity to gather in person with others who feel comfortable sewing in a group setting indoors.
The newsletter article deadline is next week as well, on January 9. Please submit to rvqgnews@gmail.com.
If you want your creations exhibited at the next meeting, Trudy S. has requested that you email photos to rvqgshowandshare@gmail.com sooner rather than later. The display presentations take a minute or two to make!
Our first meeting of 2024 takes place on the 22nd via Zoom. As per usual, I’ll send out an email reminder a few days before, then a link to the meeting the day of. Just like the in person meetings, the virtual ones start at 7 but “doors” open at 6:30. If you are new to the guild, please make sure you have updated Zoom on your device. Then instead of navigating icy roads you can enjoy staying warm at home, with a bevvie of your choice, listening to Kathy Tidswell talk about her journey through fibre arts. Winter does have its advantages.
Welcome to 2024!
Kathy P.
