Winter Programs – Last chance to bring in your Ugly Fabric donations, please try to have them folded and tagged with yardage or size. The auction will be at the January meeting.

We still need a few more volunteers for ‘Tips and Techniques’ for the February meeting so that we can have a really enjoyable and enriching meeting. Please send a message or speak to me at the December meeting. Thanks.

The Holiday season can be stressful!! Therefore, remember how quilting helps us relax.
Here are four health benefits of quilting:

It lets you unplug from the modern world.
Playing with color and geometry is good for your brain.
The physical act of quilting relieves stress.
It provides a community for quilters.

Donations of books and magazines for the May Quilt show are being accepted. Remember to remove any identifying labels.

HELP!! Seeking volunteers to assist at the Guild Library. Hoping you can help out!! Let me know and sign up at the library table.
