Hello all, Mary Ellen here.

What a quilt show! The whole thing was glorious in my book. If you weren’t able to attend, the photos will be coming at our website (see sidebar) soon, and who knows what you’ll see right here at our blog in the near future. I saw Marija in paparazzi mode several times, and I know she is anxious to try out our guild YouTube channel (yep that’s right, she’s got us on YouTube!).

Sincere thanks and compliments to all the members, particularly Kelly Miller the chairwoman, for our glorious show. Two years in the making and a spectacular success. Brava!

If you are not a member of our guild, please consider joining us. You can go to the museum website (in our sidebar) to get info on how to join the museum, with an add-on guild membership. That would include all the perks of museum membership as well as guild membership. The museum has wonderful activities from spring through to the fall; you can find activities for the whole family.

If you are a member of a different quilt guild, please help us get the word out about our fall quilting seminar. At our guild website there is a button in the sidebar that will take you to all sorts of information. We would be happy to send you bookmarks with  info for your members, or perhaps come to one of your meetings to talk it up. If your newsletter editor would contact me-either through a comment here, or at amqgsem@verizon.net, I can send an article about seminar for your newsletter. We have wonderful teachers at seminar, this year Beth Ferrier and Anita Grossman Solomon and 8 local teachers. The company of other quilters is so nice and the food is great too! Please consider joining us; you do not need to be a member of our guild to come to seminar.
