Our 50th anniversary presentations at the Minnesota Quilt Guild were very well received. There were approximately 70 or so on the Thursday evening ZOOM and about 45 “In person” at the Saturday morning show. Everyone enjoyed seeing who we are, how we began and what we do.
They are celebrating their 50th in a few years and were very interested in how we obtained financial support and how we managed to plan the whole year’s events. Several of their members are members of our guild and were in attendance. They loved the “show and tell” of quilts and really had fun looking at the “fiber art in a valise.” It contained examples of many of the fiber arts our guild does. There was real interest in the drop spindle! Both presentations were a win win for me as the presenter. I got to talk to one of my favorite guilds about my other favorite guild. Leslie Hall.
