I'm thankful for. . .TRSG

Workshop chair Dee B. reported that the preliminary deposit for the Stacy Nash workshop is $75 and the deadline for sign up is January 4th. The kit design will be a pinkeep drum and sewing roll especially prepared for our guild, with some required pre-stitching. In addition, Stacy will demonstrate finishing techniques and fabric aging. The dates again are March 12 & 13 and the location is the Keller Police Station. In September, Sherri Jones, of Patrick's Woods will present a workshop for us, the cost of which will be $110 and will require no pre-stitching. Please forward any ideas for programs in 2012 to Stephanie H.; keep in mind that Theresa, of Shakespeare’s Peddler, is available for teaching.

The MAGIC program reveal is scheduled for the first meeting of the New Year in January 2011. Dee B. has the list, so please contact her if you need a reminder of what you committed to stitch.

If anyone has any interest in attending a TRSG retreat, please contact Kim L. There is a fall retreat tentatively scheduled for the weekend of October 14-16, 2011.
