In-Meeting Activities

Block of the Month
The 2020-2021 BOM is a melee of half-square triangles.  The plan(after a Covid hiatus lasting longer than any of us thought it would) is to finish the blocks by April and have the BOM "reveal" at our June meeting.  Everyone showing a completed top with all the blocks in it will be eligible for a big prize drawing!

Free Stuff
The Free Stuff area will resume once we begin meeting in person.

We now have a ‘Free Stuff’ area for quilt-related items that you no  longer want, such as patterns, orphan blocks, fabrics, etc. Just bring  your items to the meeting and put them in the ‘Free Stuff’ area. During  the meeting someone might look at your donation and see a treasure.  Please check after break to see if your donation was taken . If not,  please take it home; you can always bring it back next month. Any free  stuff left after the meeting will be discarded.

Get ‘Er Done (GED)
Do you have unfinished projects needing  your attention?  Want some motivation for finishing one or more of  them?  To participate in our 2021 GED!  Simply complete a GED list of up to 6 unfinished  projects, easiest listed first, include your name and email, and keep  the bottom half for your reference.  You may download the form below.  Give us your list, along with a  participation fee of $2 per item, so we can keep track of your progress and enter your  name for a drawing.  Every other month, we will draw a project number  that you are tasked with finishing by a future date.  Bring proof of  completion at the designated meeting and you’ll be eligible for a prize  drawing.  For questions or more information, contact Debbie Basile  

Library
The Guild maintains a library of quilting books for members’ use. Guild  members can check out up to three books a month, which are due back at  the following guild meeting.

Sew and Sew Raffle
At each meeting, the Sew and Sew Raffle committee presents fabric,  books, patterns, and other quilt-related treasures for which members and  guests can purchase tickets.  The Sew and Sew Raffle will continue when we resume mein in person.

Show and Tell

During a portion of our monthly general meetings, members have an  opportunity to share their quilts in a Show and Tell moment.  We love to see what our members have been making!  We love seeing Show and Tell on our Zoom meetings.

Snacks
What’s our favorite activity? Quilting. What’s our second favorite  activity? Snacking. At every meeting, we ask certain members to bring  finger-food snacks for guild members to enjoy. They need to be brought  to the kitchen by 6:15pm on the night of the meeting. Please be sure to  sign in to let us know who brought what.  There will be a Hospitality  schedule  once we start meeting in person again.
