Coming Back--Safely

Hello, Ties that Bind Quilters!

It may have only been a few months by the calendar, but it has felt like forever since we had a quilt meeting.  (Does anybody else think the girl on the left above might have a Covid-19 haircut?)

As of Wednesday this week (June 17th), the guild is resuming meetings at Pilgrim church, with some social distancing rules in place.
  • There will be no food served at the meeting and if you want something to drink, you should bring it with you. 
  • Please spread out and only have two or three at a table. 
  • Masks are not required but please respect those that are wearing them.  Many of our members are in the "at risk" group. 
  • We don't know if we will need to limit Show and Tell until we see how many members show up for the meeting. 
  • Be respectful of the space.  The church is graciously letting us meet there (many other guilds are not being allowed back into their meeting places yet).  We will need to wipe down/disinfect all of the tables and chairs after the meeting.  I know we like to spread out all of our stuff we bring with us but be aware that we will have to clean all of the surfaces we use.  
  • Please do not attend if you are not feeling well.
Not all of us are ready to come back yet, and that's okay.  Take your time and do what is best for you.

Have you been sewing during the quarantine?  (It's a great stress reliever.)  Colleen has been doing a wonderful job showing guild members' work on the Facebook page.  We can also do that here.

Got show and tell?  Send me a photo!  I'll post it here for everyone to see.  You can send it to either my phone via text or my email.  Make sure to add your name to your text/email so I can give you credit.

Due to family concerns I won't be at the June meeting.  To all who go, have a good time, and stay safe!

Sincerely,
Sylvia
