Pacific Piecemakers Quilt Guild
General Meeting

June 15, 2007

The meeting was called to order at 1:04 P. M. by President Marilyn Limbaugh during the Quilts of Valor workshop.

Lola De Longorita, and Laura Hamilton showed the top for the Art In The Redwood’s Quilt.  (AIR) The quilt, called “Tropical Splendor” will be quilted by Sharon Malachowski.  Joyce Gaudet is also working on the quilt.  It is beautiful.

Polly Dakin thanked Carol Tackett for running the current 2007 Challenge Show.  Carol thanked Polly Dakin, Anna Hines, Gail Sims, Janet Windsor, Barbara Dunsmoor and Marilyn Limbaugh for helping hang the show and decorate.

Anna Hines, next year’s challenge shows chairperson, announced the theme “I found it in the Library”.  Please scan the cover of the book you use, if possible. The GAC has requested a $10.00 entry fee for the pieces that are not for sale.  The 2009 Challenge Show will be chaired by Gail Sims with help from Anna Hines and Polly Dakin.  The theme and information for that show needs to be submitted to the GAC by December 2007.
