President’s Message

June 2022

How fortunate that we can bring to a close another successful year with an in person meeting. The things we took for granted previously, have special meaning for us now that we are slowly moving towards a new normal!

The Nesting Robin challenge was rescheduled to June’s meeting, giving our members one more month to finish their projects. Let’s make sure there a number of quilts competing for the prizes!

Our 2022/2023 year will be a combination of in person and virtual meetings. The current plan is for our meetings during January to March to be virtual, with the remainder in person.

In closing, I want to thank all of our members and advertisers who have continued to support our guild in these unprecedented times. Also, thank you to everyone who has supported our Comfort Quilt program, as their overwhelming success has exceeded the needs of many organizations in our communities.  (See picture on page 15).

Looking forward to seeing everyone at our 2nd in person meeting next week! Please don’t forget to bring your contributions to support the local Food Share program

Janice Haluszka, president
