Holy Moly - I've updated the guilds blog FINALLY

I know I know, it's about time!


Here's our president's message:

Hello Again Everyone,
It looks like we are off to a good start this year. It was great to see everyone at the last meeting. I loved the power point presentation. It looks like Juanita has some great programs lined up for us this year. I don’t know about all of you, but I made sure I signed up. Saturday’s sew day at the mall was fun. There was a fairly large group of us and a number of people were working on the witches’ hats. I’m glad we have people who are creative enough to come up with ideas for those hats. I’ll leave it to them. There were also pumpkins, pillows, bowl co-zies, table runners, and crayon bags being made to name a few items. It looks like we will have quite a few items for our boutique. Keep those sewing machines humming along, there is still time to get bou-tique items made. Just a reminder, our next meeting is still at the church, but our November meeting will be in our new location at the Fraternal Hall.
