July Meeting

Hello our talented beauties,

We hope all of you are surviving the heat by quilting or crafting inside!  We will be having our Sassi Strippers Quilt Guild Meeting at the Jones Creek Library on July 21, 2022 @ 6:30pm.   

At the meeting, I will be filling in for our fabulous President, Sharon Holder, due to a prior appointment that she has scheduled.  We want to thank Judy Holley for her wonderful and very inspirational program last month. 

Can’t wait for our July program by Cheryl Myers.  She will be demoing the Pineapple Ruler by Gyleen Fitzgerald.  Cheryl loves this technique and has made many beautiful blocks with this ruler.  So come on, bring your tabs, projects, UFO’s, show-n-tell and join me for some creativity, fun and fellowship!

Humbly yours,

Pam Tennyson & Sharon Holder
