Happy Holidays. Join fellow guild members for the 2020 Holiday Party. Although we will miss the festive celebrating with each other and admiring everyone's holiday attire and delicious pot luck fare - this year you may enjoy a cocktail or two.
There will also be a virtual Show and Tell of Monster and Creature Dolls and any other newly created projects. Please email photos of dolls and quilts to Karen Nicholson no later than November 8. knicholson25@optonline.net
A link to the Zoom meeting has been sent to all members with email. Contact Karen if you have not received instructions.

Quarantine Challenge Block
The Theme is “A Quilters Quarantine”
Requirements: Make a 10.5” house block
We’d like to invite each member to create her own version of a House Block that measures 10.5” square. You choose the design of your house block and the colors that mean the most to you- all to reflect your time at home during this shelter-at-home period.
We decided it would be great to see each of your unique interpretations of the common House Block - in your own way.
If you do a search in Pinterest and type in - "Quilt house blocks patterns" - many come up to choose from and most are free.
The only requirement is it should finish at 10.5” square. You may make more than one block if you’d like to.
Turn in completed blocks at November Guild Meeting.
