March President’s Letter

President’s Letter

March 2024

Spring is around the corner!  It teased us for a few days in February and looks like another bit of spring is on the way.  Indiana is so up and down!  If you are in our Mudsocks Facebook group, you may have seen Amanda’s “temperature” block for January – can’t wait to see her February block.

By the way, our Facebook group is “closed,” which means only paid members of Mudsocks have access.  So feel free to post in there knowing it is not seen by “the world”.  Also, please don’t invite your friends to join unless they are members.  Facebook keeps asking me to invite everyone I know, but our able administrator will not let them in.

Like many people, I spent some time over the holidays reorganizing my sewing room – I can now see most of my ufo’s – turns out I love to piece the tops but slack off on the quilting, so I set a goal to finish one adult and one baby quilt per month.  Nothing fancy on the quilting – just something I can do on my domestic Pfaff.  On track so far – let’s see if I can stick with it, although I did pick up a 3-yard bundle AND some fabric at the storage room to make a couple more tops….

I was able to attend our new member gathering on February 16th.  It was fun to be with a smaller group and get to know each other – and the guild – a little better.  Thank you to Laurie for hosting us in her lovely home and showing us her sewing room.  Next one is in April; be sure to sign up at our general meeting as space is limited.

Reminders:

  • Please come a few minutes early so that you can be in your seat right at 9:30 when the fun begins.
  • If you are able, please park in the side parking lot at the church
  • Wear your name tag and bring a $1 donation and/or donation item for Cornerstone Lutheran

Happy St Patrick’s Day and Happy Easter!

Mary
