Meeting This Wednesday!

Ladies,

This is a reminder that our Christmas in July meeting is this Wednesday, July 25. Please note the supplies you need in Sandy's earlier post if you would like to participate in the project she designed just for us.

This is also the last meeting that the Programs Committee can accept donations for our biennial auction in September. The auction helps raise funds to bring in designers/teachers so that all the members have to pay for is their kit. Please bring your donations to this meeting. We will not be accepting donations after tonight.

There will be no regular business meeting in August because we will be hosting Eileen Bennett of The Sampler House August 4 and 5.

The auction on September 26 shows some promise. We have some excellent donations -- at least 10 Vera Bradley and Longaberger bags (Thanks, Carol G.!) and a LOT of linen and other fabrics courtesy of Emily Dietz of Delaware, OH.

If you have any questions, please leave a comment.

See you at the meeting!

Christmas in July!

Everyone - for the next meeting (July 25th) we'll celebrate Christmas in July.  I know that sounds very appealing right now given the temperatures we've been having!

We'll be stitching a needlepoint Christmas ornament that I designed.  You'll need the following supplies:  1 piece of needlepoint canvas (stitched size is 41 h x 43 w...then you'll need a small border); 1 card of a Rainbow Gallery fiber (pick according to the size canvas you will be stitching on); #4 braid or fiber for the year 2012; tapestry needle.

I'll also have finishing instructions for the ornament.

See you all on July 25th.
