August ZOOM Meeting -- August 20, 2020


Hey All,

Well, if we can't meet in person, we'll meet on Zoom!
We had a couple practice Zoom meetings last week. If anyone is still not sure about Zoom, please contact me and we'll make sure you are ready for the guild meeting on Thursday.

There is a YouTube video that you can check out in your spare time. It is a meet and greet for some quilting instructors who are teaching via Zoom right now. There will be a few more coming up this Fall, that I will also be forwarding to you. We can potentially do one of these as a guild. Something we will talk about Thurs. 


We will talk about a couple things, have a little show and tell, and catch up some. 

Cheryl

March Meeting Cancelled


Hi,

Pam and I have discussed the current situation with the Corona Virus and we have decided that it is in the best interest of all our members to cancel the meeting this month. She has contacted our presenter and let her know also. We will re-evaluate the situation on a month-to-month basis and I will keep you all updated.

In the mean time, please everyone take care of yourselves and those around you and enjoy your sewing. 

If any of you need anything, call me and I will help you if I can.

Cheryl
