President's Message Katherine Hunter
I can't believe that another year has gone by! Please read the newsletter thoroughly so that you don't miss any of the news or happenings. Our June meeting is our Annual General Meeting and potluck dinner. The agenda and reports will have been sent to you in a separate email. Please let me know if you have any comments, questions, or concerns that should be addressed at the AGM.
The countdown is officially on! Less than one year to our “Golden Threads” Quilt Show. A lot of planning goes into a show and we need members to get involved in whatever capacity they are able. Please speak to Wendy Brick (volunteer coordinator), Darla Youldon (Co-Chair) or Dianne Goldsmith (Co-Chair) to lend a hand with the show pre-planning and activities.

- The President's Challenge was to take a panel and create a finished piece (flimsies are acceptable). I am looking forward to seeing what the membership has created from the wide variety of panels that were offered. Quilts, bags, jackets, hugs?
- Please keep those orphan blocks coming. On page 7 you’ll find photos of the display at Clearview ... 17 quilts made from the orphan blocks that YOU donated!
- I was excited to receive the pattern for the poinsettia wallhanging scheduled for the summer workshops. My Christmas wallhanging is looking a little sad so it will be nice to have a new one.
- The BOM is returning in September! On page 10 is information about the potato chip blocks and the colours you’ll need each month. Questions? See Sue Williams at the guild meeting.
- The Compass Community Centre and Foodbank is in need of coffee mugs for their meal and drop-in programmes. If you have any to donate, please bring them to the June meeting and we will make sure they wend their way to the Compass.
