President's Message.Hello guild members,
April is upon us and we have several important items to address. First is we have confirmed that April will be our last month to meet at the present meeting location at 13776 SW 8th Street. We have to move by May 1 st out of the present location and into our new and improved 184th Street and 112th Avenue site. I know this will affect some of us more than others, but we will do what we can to make this a smooth move. The new location is big and much more secure. Located on a second floor, (there is an elevator) it is much brighter and will accommodate most of our needs. There are separate “classrooms” that we can use so when we have classes we can set up as we arrive and not have to wait for meeting’s end to set up tables. There is plenty of parking that will be for us only and the new location is right off the Turnpike, so no 8th street traffic. The best part is we may not need a microphone, lol. There is a small kitchen where we can have coffee and tea as usual, but may need to modify our lunches. We can discuss that at our regular meeting so we can all voice our opinions. We will have more details for you at our regular meeting on the 14th -- hope you can ALL attend. With that all said, remember we have a special guest, Mr. Eddie Mansfield, who will help you with your sewing machines, and the Scissor Guy will again join us to sharpen your weapons, I mean scissors. Mary Ann Ericson will be teaching her methods for constructing a Cathedral Windows quilt with hand sewing techniques, please make sure you have the required materials ready, this is sure to be a fun class! See you at our meeting, As always keep your bobbins full, Gary Iglesias
