President’s Message

I am caught up in what I call the August Frenzy – a frantic whirl of deadlines rushing up at me, and time going by too fast! Here’s what’s on my mental checklist this month:

2018 Auction Quilt Blocks – we need your Bloomin’ Boots! So bloomin’ get them finished and bring them to the bloomin’ Au-gust Guild meeting, or get them to me or Anita Ruthenberg be-fore then. Contact Anita if you need a pattern

Doss Heritage Display – entries are due in by the end of August. This is a chance for our guild to be highly visible from Decem-ber – February, and we want them to have a wonderful variety of quilts to pick from, so choose 2-3 quilts, take pictures of each of them, fill out the entry form, and mail it in. You can do it!

2017 Raffle Quilt ticket sales – have you sold your packet of raffle tickets and turned them in? Our Raffle Quilt is one of our main fund raisers for the year, and makes it possible to promote quilting in the community, and give back to the community. Each guild member should sell at least one packet of tickets – even if it’s to yourself! Get those tickets turned in to Beverly Lindsey, and pick up more while you’re at it!

And best of all, I just found out that my next grandchild, due around Christmas, will be a girl! Whoo hoo – time for frills and lace! Got to get a quilt made for the little princess!

Okay, now I feel better – but ya’ll have a lot of work to do! See you at the August meeting! Hot today, chili tomorrow! Spice it up! Marsha Corlley, President

Quilters’ Guild of Parker County Meeting Minutes

July 20, 2017 The meeting was called to order at 7:00 p.m. by President Marsha Corlley. The minutes of the June meeting were approved without corrections or additions. A copy of the Treasurer’s Report, for anyone who wished to review it, was available on request from Judy McDonald. Schoolhouse demonstrations were conducted by Jean McBride and Jo Lynn O’Neil. Marsha announced that a blue polar pack was found after the March Guild Retreat. Sue Haupt reminded the group to turn in their President’s blocks as soon as possible. The Bear Creek Guild had their raffle quilt on display and tickets could be purchased at their table. STANDING COMMITTEE REPORTS Programs: Mary Williams reported that the programs for the next three months will be: August - Myra Hall and Cynda Ewing, “Adventures in a Quilt Business” September - The Guild Quilt Auction October - Kathy Duigan, “Midnight in the Garden of Appliqué" Workshops: Brenda announced that the next workshop will not be held until Friday, November 17th, when Rosie de Leon McCrady will present “Redwork Embroidery”. Brenda also stated that she will be moving very soon to Taiwan. We all appreciate her work for the Guild and we will miss her. Membership: Dartle Atherton reported that there were 67 members and 5 visitors present. One person joined the Guild. Show and Tell: There were a large number of quilts shown including many for donation to the auction. The Library Bee showed their cute little dress form pin cushions.

Contact Anita Ruthenberg if you need a pattern New Business By-Laws and Policies Revisions: In August the guild members will vote on the changes to the By-Laws and Policies. Program: Sue Esparza, “Repair-Restore-Conserve” Sue explained some of the questions that need to be asked regarding antique and damaged quilts. She suggested: Do as little as possible Don’t do anything that can’t be undone Preventative maintenance is the best medicine If a quilt is 30% damaged, it is probably worth restoring At 50% damaged, it may not be worth the cost of restoration Don’t take fabric out of a quilt, appliqué over the damage The President asked for a motion to adjourn the meeting which was made by Sue Haupt and seconded by Mary Williams. The meeting was adjourned at 8:48 pm by President Marsha Corlley. Respectfully Submitted, Janette M. Duke, Secretary

Doss Heritage Center Exhibit

QGPC is partnering with the Doss Heritage Center for an exhibit that tells the stories of quilting and the Quilt Guild of Parker County. The exhibit is December 2017 through February 2018 and will feature antique quilts from a variety of geographic locations and recent quilts made by members of the QGPC and/or residents of Parker County. This activity supports our mission to preserve the art of quilt making, stimulate interest in quilts and quilt making, assist community in quilt making, and educate through instruction and fellowship. To share an antique quilt or a recent quilt, please complete and submit the Call for Artifacts form (with photo of quilt) by the end of August. The form is included in this newsletter. Forms with photos may be emailed to curator@dosscenter.org, given to the receptionist at the Doss Center, mailed to the Doss Center, or given to Shirley Reagan at a QGPC meeting. On December 9, 2017, during the Heritage Christmas Tour of Homes Event, the Doss Center will feature the QGPC as guild members share quilt-making demonstrations from noon to 7 pm. Demonstrations will in-clude activities such as yo-yos, English paper piecing, rotary cutting, hand quilting, and machine piecing. At our last meeting, numerous members volunteered to assist with demonstrations; however, more volunteers are needed for the afternoon of December 9. A time schedule for those who wish to volunteer will be provided at the August Guild meeting.

History

The Quilter’s Guild of Parker County was established in February 2000 by an enthusiastic group of quilters with a desire to keep the art of quilting alive in the Parker County community and its surrounding areas. The following are the founding members: Pam Luke President and Newsletter Janet Hoefer Vice President Kathleen Tillman Secretary and Membership Rosemary Zaugg Treasurer Katherine Dykes Show and Tell Mary Vaughn Show and Tell Betty Nuss Membership Sharon Haire Finance Carol Latimer Publicity Donna Motley Publicity and Special Events

Mission

The Mission of the Guild is to preserve the art of quilt making and stimulate interest in Quilts. The Guild provides assistance to the community in areas concerning the art of quilting. The Guild strives to educate its members and the public by provid-ing instruction and fellowship for persons interested in quilting. The Quilter’s Guild of Parker County is a 501c3 non-profit organization, a publicly supported, membership organization com-posed of individuals who share a common goal for which the organization was created. Members actively participate in achieving the organization’s mission through community service. We are financially supported by dues, private donations, a Quilt Auction, a Quilt Show and a Raffle Quilt.

Membership Information

Yearly membership dues are established by the Executive Board. See the Guild’s information placard for the current amount. Annual Dues run from January to December. Visitors are welcome to attend two meetings as our guests then they will be asked to join. Monthly meetings are held on the third Thursday evening of each month.

Board Meetings

Open monthly Executive Board meetings are held on the first Thursday evening of the month.

Quilting Bees

Quilting Bees are very much a part of American history. Women would gather in their homes and invite their neighbors to help baste and quilt a top, perhaps all in one day. The Quilting Bee was an important part of their social lives during times when communications were limited. Today, the Quilting Bee is still an important part of how quilters connect with each oth-er in order to stimulate creativity, socialize and help each other complete projects. The Guild has several active Bees and a Beekeeper who can assist members in finding or starting a Bee. There are day, evening and weekend Bees available. Don’t miss out! Come and join the fun!

Community Service

The Quilter’s Guild of Parker County works to raise funds to support local charities both in distribution of funds as well as quilts through the Comfort Quilt Program. A handmade quilt is an expression of love and caring in the form of a “security blanket” offered in a time of need in a per-son’s life. Our Guild members work individually and as a group through the Comfort Quilt Program to provide quilts for vari-ous charitable organizations in Parker County. Each year the Guild sets aside at least one meeting in order to have a group “sew-in” to assist in making these quilts in addition to monthly opportunities for participation. Members have the opportunity to participate in Guild activities which are interactive with the Parker County community. Past events include Weatherford Blooms, Shaw Kemp Gathering, Parker County Peach Festival, Spring Creek Festival and the Cowboy Gathering. The Guild Quilt Show and Quilt Auction are the Guild’s two largest events.
