General Membership Meeting
September 13 @ 9:00 am - 1:00 pm
Join us for our General Membership Meeting on Saturday, September 13th, 9:30AM to approximately 1:00PM. The meeting will be at the Live Oak Grange, 120 Gardiner Street, Rogue River, OR. We welcome anyone with an interest in quilts in all their forms and at all skill levels.
REMEMBER – Membership Packets for the new fiscal year (with badges, cards, etc.) will be handed out at the Sign-In Table
9:00 – Sign-In Table opens where you can:
- Pick up your ticket for door prizes
- Enter the emoticon drawing (look for it in the current newsletter)
- Get a ticket for each “1930’s reproduction” fat quarter you turn in, for example:
- Pick up a copy of the latest newsletter, meeting agenda, and Treasurer’s report.
Just past the Sign-In Table is the Block Party display. Turn in your “Candy Heart Jar” appliqué blocks and/or your “Circle of Stars” pieced blocks that were presented at the July meeting. Across the room is the Quilts of Valor display where you can turn in blocks or quilts you made (just remember to put your name on each QOV item). You can also pick up a pattern or kit for the next QOV project.
At the back of the room is the Opportunity Quilt display where you can buy your tickets if you haven’t already done so. And next to that is the MEG (Machine Embroidery Group) table where you can get information about the group and their upcoming monthly meetings and projects.
9:30 – Early Bird Class will feature Anna DeHoog doing a presentation on fabric dying.
10:45 – Lunch is served. Lunch will be potluck so bring a dish to share with the other attendees. As always, regular and decaf coffee will be available plus hot water and tea bags for those who prefer that.
11:15 – Business Meeting begins. It includes presentations from the Board and Committee Chairs plus drawings for door prizes, emoticon, fat quarters, and Block Party.
12:00 (approx.) – Speaker/Presentation. (To be announced later.)
12:45 (approx.) – Show and Tell. This will immediately follow the Speaker Presentation. Bring your latest creations to show to the group and remember to state your name when you come up on the stage so we can give you credit when we post the photos of your quilt on the website under Show & Tell.
At the conclusion of the meeting we ask that you help put away the tables and chairs.
