Syracuse Utah Quilt Guild Tuesday, November 8, 2022

Kathy welcomed everyone to the guild meeting. Anita did the drawing for

door prizes.  Becky handed out birthday gifts for October and November.

Marilyn gave us her last report as Area Representative

with Suzanne taking over that role in January.

*Tickets for the next QuiltFest Opportunity Quilt go on sale 

and can be purchased from the Area Reps.

*The Rusty Barn Quilt Show at Mountain America will be held in May. 

If you buy your tickets from the Utah Guild, you will get a discount 

and also a portion of the funds will go to the Utah State Quilt Guild.

*The silent auction baskets brought in $3,300 for the Utah guild. 

*Mardell said the last time she checked our basket was bid at $55.

*Remote Fest will be held again in April-May.

 It is a convenient and fun way to take classes at your own speed.

*There will be no Beeline in January.

Thanks Marilyn!
