Staying together, though we're apart.


Greetings!  I hope you are all enjoying your summer as best you can in this very different period of time.  We may not be able to hold our meetings, but our guild is staying strong! 
If you're a member but not getting your newsletter, please make sure you have paid your dues for the year.  There are great stories from our friends every month, helping us feel connected.  Please share your stories with Alex for the next newsletter.  We'd love to hear from you!

If you weren't aware of it, the consortium has started a new Facebook page where we can all share news from our guild members in order to stay connected while we're staying safely apart.  You can join here:
https://www.facebook.com/groups/qcnysnews
Or let me know you want to join and I think I can invite you!
One piece of news recently shared there is that Barb Smith of Limestone Threads- who was to be a vendor at our show in October- has opened a small shop!  She is taking appointments between 10 am and 7 pm, Monday- Saturday. Please contact her at limestonethreads@outlook.com for more details and bookings.

So far the only picture I have received is this one from John Roll and JoAnn Flynt.
John said:
"This is the quilt we made for JoAnn's grand niece. Started it at the Guild Retreat in Georgia. Finished it this week up here. "


 For myself, I have done very little quilting in the last couple of months.  I have been doing some drawing and coloring as a way to de-stress.  This is a picture I drew featuring some garden friends. 


I look forward to seeing more of your  projects very soon! 
Stay well and keep in touch!
