President’s Message

Wow! It’s 2019 already! Got through theholidays–prettymuch,every-thing put away – kinda, and now

lookingforwardtosomegoodtimes.I’mfindingthatIambecomingmoreandmoreofa “creature of habit.” I sit in “my spot,” order chickenscampiatOliveGardenallthetime,drink my Pepsi room temp and some other quirksthataretoogoofytomention.

Now when I was little,Iwouldhidebehind my mom with a death grip on her pants so she couldn’t be two feet away from me, that was my comfort zone. When mom had to work, I would sit at my Grannie’s feet as she sat for hours cro-cheting,knittingorsewing. When I was 7, Grannie said to me, “Hey, make yourself useful!,”soshehadmesewingonbuttons,hemming skirts and pants, and winding yarn into balls – many, many balls. My projects began.

Every January I make a list of projects I would like to do for the new year, either on my own or with friends. Pinterest has been a blessing andacursetomylistof“GottaDo.”Justwhenyouthinkyou’ve“doneitall,”onelittleboardof pins can make you say, “Whaaaat! Look at thatCOOLstuff!”Ihavemycomfortzoneofthings, but it’s an adventure to look beyond.

I look forward to the second Tuesday of each month to see you all for a couple hours. AsIparticipatein workshops,

I also get the chance to know some of you more. Sewing, talking and laughing is a great comfortzone(multiplythatbyfourtimesatretreat!). Yes!

We had suchawonderfultimehand-ing out Quilts for Kids on SnuggleDay.AhugethankyoutoSusiMcLane,CarolHarterandPeggyCalvertwho came to help us set up and hand out the quilts and pillowcases. We handed out 110 quilts and 113 pillowcas-es. I’m sure there are a lot of children who will be very happy with their new quilts and pillowcases!

veterans.

Our Fabric Pack winners were GigiHicks,LynnClouserandJulie Valencia, who won two! Congratulations,ladies!Don’tforget,yougetatickettowina Fabric Pack for every item you take and every item you bring back! As a tribute to our veterans you will receive two ticketsperitem.

We appreciate all the work that is done by our Guild members throughout the year to be able to deliver these quilts. It takes a lot of hands to be able to make this happen! Happily, we have manydifferentopportuni-tiesforyoutohelpandbe

a part of our Philanthropy. WehavetwoSewDayseachyear at The Orange Quilt Bee, one coming up in February and another day in October. We also have quilts tops to be sewn, sandwiched tops, batting,andbottomstobequilted (this is a great way to practice!),andsewingontheBinding.

Show and Tell so I may choose the best! (Which will be all of

them! Muahahahaha!)



All can play part in Quilt ShowWith our theme of “Branch Out...”, we can safely use the analogy of the forest. A forest is a living and changing organism that has many needs. Some of our members are able to be large trees that can stand and reach for the sky. But some of us cannot be that big for many reasons.Someofusarelittletreesstartingout,animalsthatliveintheforest,theleavesthatfall,thecompostontheforestfloororeventhesmallestinsect.Nomatterwhatyour“forestjob” may happen to be, they are all important and vital to the success of that forest.

We ask you to be whatever part of the forest you can be. When sign ups come out for volun-teers,weaskthatyoubeapartofourOCQGlivingorganismandsignupforasmanyareasthat you feel comfortable.

Have a great month all!
