June Activities

June's meeting of Vance Quilts R Us was an informative evening of members sharing their favorite sewing and quilting tips and tools.  We found out how other members use everything from hair bands to clothespins.  

The guild welcomes their newest member, Gale Richardson.  Guests included Sharon Raynor and Joyce Bobbitt.
Faith Smith displays her Night and Day quilt.  Faith received a third place ribbon in the Duet category at some quilt show.

 Winners of Betty's Arrow Block of the Month were Faith Smith and Frances Owen.
 Ellen Andersen won the bag of 2.5" wide strips.  Betty Stanton's name was drawn from all those sharing a tip or tool to win the Quilts Like Crazy gift certificate.
June's charity quilt workshop was busy as always.  
 Patty's sister, Kathy was visiting and she joined in the fun.
Sue was going to use Miss Lou's machine to sew on a binding.  But the sewing gods were against them.
