Chatham
Quilters – May 2008 Congratulations
to Eileen Powers for winning the April blotto.
We will be suspending the blotto until fall, due to the low attendance
during the summer months. At
our May 13th meeting, President Kay discussed allowing the 6 people
on our waiting list to become members, thereby bringing our membership to 91.
We would then close the membership, and no longer have a waiting list.
A motion was made by Alice Bessler; seconded by Joy Lynch; approved by
the majority present. We
need a volunteer to serve on the Guild’s Christmas Party committee.
If you are interested in volunteering, let us know before the end of
June. Currently
we do not have a bus trip scheduled for the Jacksonville Quilt
Show.
I’d like to encourage you to take a look at the Guild’s website, if you haven’t already done so. You will find info about the quilt show, our current and past newsletters, show & tell photos and retreat photos, and many other items of interest. Check it out at:

or www.QGOTV.org UFO
