Upcoming Meeting - November 7, 1-3 (zoom)

We look forward to seeing you this month on Saturday, October 3,  from 1-3 (Zoom access to start early at 12:30 if you want to socialize before the meeting that begins at 1:00).  

NOVEMBER MEETING - “How To Copy Right” 

In this month’s program, Paige Alexander and Cindy Lammon will present a program on copyright in quilting. When is it okay to copy? What are your responsibilities when copying? How do you move from copying to creating your own unique work? They will share some guidelines and norms in the quilting world along with examples of some real-life copyright situations.

A Few Reminders and Bits of Information

October's Block of the Month was Half-Circle Block inspired by Latifah Saafir . We look forward to seeing your block during our meeting. 

Our meetings for the rest of the year will be on Zoom and there will not be any more sew-ins for the rest of the year (but don't let that keep you from visiting your favorite local quilt shops).

Mystery Holiday Elf Swap:  In keeping with social distancing, in lieu of our annual Holiday Auction Luncheon there will be a Mystery Holiday Elf Swap for which we will secretly make items to swap.  Sign up/register for swapping handmade items by emailing Faye Jones (birdie1345<at>aol<dot>com), briefly identifying your preference for a religious, secular (e.g., HO HO HO, reindeer, etc.), traditional or modern item so that you can get something you will want and can use. 

Reach out: Have you found yourself wondering about someone you used to see at in-person meetings?  Take a minute to email or call someone to say hi and invite them to the meeting this weekend.
