NEWS FLASH

 

January Program

 

January 21st, we will have Brenda Perry giving us her "Confessions of a Quilt-a-holic". She will be bringing her Cathedral Squares and many other quilts I know you will want to see. Along with her quilts come her funny and heartwarming stories. She promised to share some quilt making tips as well. I am sure we will enjoy her talk and her quilts.

Don’t miss it!


Fat Quarter Lotto 2010

Do you have some extra fat quarters around the house? Do you love to win fabric?

Well do we have something for you. Each  month at the guild meeting we will hold a Fat Quarter Lotto. To participate all you need to do is bring a fat quarter in the theme of that month.

 This should be fun and easy! A great way to get rid of unwanted Fat Quarters or pick up a bunch.

Remember: Fat quarters are 18” x 22”. Please bring good quality fabric that you would want to receive.

See the January newsletter or the Fat Quarter Lotto form for more details.


The Allen Quilters' Guild is a 501(c)(3) organization, promoting the knowledge of all aspects of quilting including the heritage, education, art and friendship of quilting.

 

Meetings are held the 3rd Thursday of each month at the First Presbyterian Church of Allen.

There are several activities, workshops and community service projects to participate in.

Annual dues are $25 for adults and $15 for juniors.

Storybook Quilt Program


We had a fantastic and very successful 2009. We are in the process of purchasing some new books and materials for our program. There are still books that are in need of quilters. Come see us at the break. We look forward to see what 2010 has in store for the storybook quilts. Thanks for sharing your time and talent with the children of Allen.

Community Donation
 

A big thank you to everyone who came to our wonderful Christmas Brunch and brought
canned goods for the Allen Community Outreach. They were so appreciative.





 

With so many people needing help, the shelves are pretty bare. So again for the month of January, we are asking the guild members to bring canned goods to share. Bring canned fruit, soups, peanut butter, macaroni and cheese or dried beans.

Thanks to all for caring and sharing.

I am looking forward to taking over the library duties in 2010! Terri Washburn has done a great job getting our books organized and we are hoping to get the bookshelves soon so that they all are easily accessible. Until then, please e-mail me if you'd like to request a certain book, and I'll pull it and have it ready for you at the next meeting.
