July President's Message

Wow, I can’t believe that it’s already six months into 2009! Time just seems to fly by. Our Guild is so lucky to have Carol Phillips. I received an unexpected phone call from Hennessey School, saying we couldn’t have our general meeting for June at the School. Carol was able to help us again, making it possible to have our meeting at the Seventh Day Adventist Church. Thank you so much, Carol.

Another thank you goes to Mary Cook’s husband, Richard. He surprised us with an ice cream treat at June’s general meeting. How thoughtful and delicious. Thank you, Richard!

Remember our July meeting is Tuesday, July 14th, a picnic from 6:00 p.m. until dusk at the Western Gateway Park in Penn Valley. Just bring your favorite potluck dish, with serving utensils, and a lawn chair if you choose. Drinks, cups, plates, and plastic utensils will be furnished by the Guild.

We won’t have a July board meeting, or an August Guild meeting, so our next Guild meeting will be September 1st. We will have an August board meeting on August 6th because of the Fair. The board meeting will be a potluck dinner at my house at 6:00 p.m.; the meeting will start at 7:00 p.m.

Everyone have a safe and fun summer, and happy quilting.

-- Claire Carter,
PTQG President

Join us at the FAIR!

The fair runs from August 12th to the 16th.

We need a total of 80 volunteers during the five days of the fair. So please consider giving us a hand.

Our Guild members volunteer to white-glove in the Needlework & Quilting Building. We have a great time with laughing and giggling. And, you get to touch the quilts! In exchange for your three hour shift, you receive a free ticket to get into the fair along with a parking pass. Our Guild also receives a credit towards the building rent for our quilt show next May.

Also, if you are interested in helping to set up the exhibits, please give either Lettie or Val a call.

  • Our Speakers
      Need Lodging

    Did you know that many of our speakers request to stay with guild members?

    Think what a treat it would be to have a guild speaker stay at your home and have breakfast with you!

    And, if you do graciously open your home to a speaker, you will get a free seat in the workshop of your choice. How sweet is that!

    If you are interested in hosting a speaker, please contact:
