To our Guild Members:

You’re probably thinking…..”Why are they writing about the quilt show that won’t be happening until September 2012?” Well it’s never too early to get you thinking about making quilts to enter into our quilt show. If you start now you won’t have that last minute rush in August 2012. It will be here before we know it. We encourage everyone in the guild to put at least one quilt in the show no matter what your skill level. In the past we’ve accepted 3 to 4 quilts per guild member so please keep on quilting!!! We accept quilts of all sizes and designs, traditional and contemporary. The show won’t be a success without your quilts!!

Also, we’d like you to start thinking about signing up to help with one of the many show committees. The quilt show can’t go on without everyone’s help. In the very near future we’ll be asking for volunteers to sign up to chair Publicity, Vendors, Admissions, Bed Turning, Boutique, Decorations, Demos and Lectures, Door Prizes, Hostesses/White Gloves, Installation/Show Hanging, Program Book, Program Book Ads, Quilt In-Take/Return, Raffle Ticket Sales, Ribbons, Setup/Cleanup, and Silent Auction so please start asking your friends or asking a new friend to help you chair one of these committees. We have packets available with helpful hints for each committee so you won’t be going into any of these jobs blindly. You can sign up to chair the committee alone or with a friend or group of friends. What better way to get to know other guild members. Not all the show committees require physical labor during the show so there is something for everyone to do. Remember many hands make light work!
