WELCOME TO THE EMPIRE QUILTERS GUILD WEBSITE
Our July meeting with Speaker Beth Helfter was wonderful. Beth's topic was 'Perfection is Over-Rated' and it's a welcome idea for all of us who are struggling with so many of today's challenges. It was also fun to talk and catch up with everyone before the meeting.
Our next meeting is August 15th (Note the change of date). Carole Shaw will be our speaker and her topic is "Modern Quilts: The Magic and The Myths'. Mark your calendar and be sure to join us.
It was fun to share what we are quilting so at the next virtual meeting be sure to bring what you are working on either finished or in progress and share it with us during a virtual Show & Tell.
Where do you quilt? Or make your creations? We want to put together a slideshow of "Where Our Members Create' so please send us a photo of where you create. It can be as small as your kitchen table or as large as a studio! We hope to share the slideshow this fall.
Our full board will be meeting (on Zoom) in August to discuss plans for the guild going forward. We want to make contingency plans for a variety of possibilities. We will not be able to make concrete plans until we hear from both the church (What the state requirements are for attendance.) and our members (How many feel comfortable meeting at this time?). If you have questions or suggestions, please email them to us at EmpireQuiltersIT@gmail.com. They will be shared with the board. Thanks in advance for taking the time to let us know how you feel.
Our August Virtual Meeting date has changed from August 8th to August 15th!
Our speaker is Carole Shaw.
