May Quilt Bingo

May 10, 2022 was the Syracuse Utah Quilt Guild Bingo.  It is an ongoing annual tradition for our guild. Everyone is asked to bring items for prizes, and desserts or treats.  There were lots of prizes to choose from and four gift cards bought by the guild were won at the end of the Bingo.

Our Utah Quit Guild Representative, Marilyn updated us on upcoming virtual quilt shows including Gems, Dance, and Tribute.

Shop Hop is in progress this week.  Hours are 10-6 weekdays and 10-5 on Saturday.  Tickets are available online.

Marilyn passed out discount coupons and information for the Salt Lake Quilt, Craft & Sewing Festival to be held May 19th, 20th and 21st, at the Mountain America Expo Center.

Utah Quilt Guild Fest brochures will only be online this year.  There will be a member mall.   Members may sell their quilts at Quilt Fest.  Nominations for the Silver Thimble Award are open.  

The Block of the Month is on the Utah Quilt Guild website.  

Door Prizes were drawn and Birthday girls for May were recognized and given a gift.  

Pam mailed A Doll Like Me 39 gowns and 15 small quilt from our guild.  She used vacuum bags to shrink them down so they would fit in a smaller box costing less to mail.   

It was discussed that the guild buy batting and backing for charity quilts.

Graduated with a Masters using her daughter's T-Shirts.
