Saturday,
February 27, 2016 -- PTQ meeting minutes
Vice
President Karen A. called the meeting to order at 9:35.
A brief
report on Lauren and her dad was given.
The results
of the email voting for Fall Gathering projects were given. The bags made from fat quarters and the row
marker pins have been the top vote earners.
Carol brought fat quarters to begin work on the bag project at sit-n-sew
today. Gwen is in process of organizing
the supplies order for the row marker pins.
Suggestion
was made that projects not selected could be made and donated as door prizes or
for the silent auction.
Fall
Gathering T-shirts: Marianne brought the
catalog for ordering T Shirts. Three
button collared shirts are available.
The guild discussed purchasing the “penny” type smock apron with small
ties on each side as used in retail settings.
Suggestion was made that a dozen of these be ordered, imprinted, and
placed in the guild supplies to be used by members for any events. Karen appointed Marianne and Naomi to come
before the guild with a presentation for a vote.
