President's Newsletter

Pueblo West Quilt Guild Newsletter

Next meeting June 2nd 7P.M.

Ecumenical Church

Hello Ladies,

Another new member!!! That makes me happy. Welcome to all of you.

The fat quarters for this month are Christmas. One person will win them all.

The block of the month is called Rose Bud. Hope we have many. The block for July

will be demonstrated by Cheryl Eaton.

The CARE meeting will be at the church again this month,this is the last one until Fall.

Then they'll have their own night. So PLEASE don't come very early, About 6:45 or so.

That way they can clear out.

Along with the icecream social in July, we will be having a sew night. Christmas in July.

You will be given a pattern, so you can have the pieces all cut and ready to sew.

Nalas from Fountain will be doing our program in June. Looking forward to having them with us.

Don't forget sew Saturday June 27th. Charlotte and Patsy will be teaching paper piecing. So bring fabric, machine and sewing essentials. You will be given a pattern and the paper. This should be a fun day. So many of you want to learn paper piecing.

 Bring snacks or lunch and something to drink.

I hope you are working on things for the auction, at least thinking of what you're going to do. It will be sneaking up on us.

 We still have guild pins for $4.00. We'd like to have everyone own one.

Mari Pretzer has the quilt for the church, she will be quilting it. Judy did a great job sewing it together.

 I'll be seeing you soon.
MARY

2009 - May - Meeting

May 2009 Meeting


The May meeting begins.

Lots of fun things to inspire us to achieve what we can in a months time……

Block of the Month that were raffled turned out awesome!

Block of the Month for the June Meeting has great possibilities! Thanks for the instruction.

LUV Quilts come in each month and are sent to some GREAT organizations for appropriate distribution!

Sew and Share is almost sensory overload! Such great quilts and projects!

As always we get a Snack break (kind of like Kindergarden) and time to interact with one another.

The program by Carolyn Collette – Table Runner – hmmm did you try it yet??? Looks good and appears to be easily accomplished.
