Thank You!

Out first meeting was last night and I know I wasn't the only one surprised by the turnout.  We had 38 amazing ladies come and join us for our first meeting with the McKinney Modern Quilt Guild.  I am so excited to see how this group connects and grows together!  


We discussed several things at the meeting, one being the meeting time.  As a group we decided moving the start time back to 6:30pm would be best for the majority of schedules.  So from now on we will start at 6:30!

This first meeting was used to introduce the ladies to the Modern Quilt Guild movement.  I highlighted several benefits of being affiliated with the National Guild.

Joy, our Vice President, was also able to share a quick notion demonstration!  She introduced our ladies to the Sewline Needle Threader.  For anyone who does hand-stitching, this is a must have notion. 

 
For those of you who missed our first meeting I wanted to let you know about the project for this month.  Whoever brings a handmade name tag to the June meeting (the sticky paper ones don't count), will be entered into a prize drawing.  Here are some examples in case you need a little inspiration.

  So, like I said, if you bring in a handmade name tag to the June meeting you will be entered into a special prize drawing! The prize also might be handmade!

Also we prepped our first Challenge!  I will be posting more about that later this week!  So get to work on those name tags and we look forward to seeing you all June 4th @ 6:30pm.
