October Meeting Recap

Meeting minutes

It's official! The Corvallis Modern Quilt Guild is now a member of the national Modern Quilt Guild.  All present unanimously voted to join the mothership at our monthly guild meeting.  Yay!

The annual dues amount was voted on and passed at $30.   This membership is good through the end of 2014.

Modern Quilt Guild bylaws were voted on and approved unanimously.

Board members were elected for the following positions:

Connie Langevin, President
Lisa Nielsen, Vice-President
Christina Fox and Carol Terrill,  co-Treasurers
Caroline Press, Secretary

Connie pointed out that anyone who wishes is welcome to help out the guild, plan events, organization, or any other job you would like to do or to help with.  You do not need to be a board member to help out . If you have an idea or suggestion, please email any of us or bring up the idea at the monthly meeting.

CMQG at the Farmer's Market!

Thanks to everyone who participated in the first anniversary event at the Corvallis Farmer's Market this past Saturday. It was so much fun. We had a beautiful booth thanks to the lovely organizers of the Farmer’s Market, Rebecca Landis and Vonda Peters.  And we had a little help from the fabulous sewn goods of our members.  It looked awesome if I do say so myself.  

It was fun to reach out to our community and we did seem to talk to people for the entire time we were there.  Who knew there would be this much interest in modern quilts!?

 
   


Thank-you Corvallis!

We will be having our September meeting at the Market of choice meeting room, upstairs, on 9/11 at 7pm.
