Thanks to the patches that have gotten their
quilt squares to us, for the TGS raffle quilt! We've really gotten some pretty ones and will be starting to put it together soon. Then we've all got to sell a raffle ticket to everyone we know, so we can add some much needed funds to the TGS bank account! The more money we can take in, the better we can make our festivals. Thanks again, and if anyone still has a square for us, please let us know.

We will miss you Sat. Barbie. And, yes, the entries in the show are amazing. I don't think I've ever seen such diversity in styles. The judges will have a hard time picking winners.

The gourds I saw for the KACC Show looked amazing. I'm disappointed that I won't be joining all of you for the reception. Have a glass of wine for me. Celebrate the beautiful results of all your hard work.

I'll have to see if I brought any gourd pieces with me that are large enough. Not sure I have any black paint, but can always pick that up while out shopping. We left a lot of things at home this trip since I wasn't working on any projects and didn't want to be climbing over art supplies all week

Melissa, thanks for offering to do a square for the TGS raffle quilt! ASAP on them as we are trying to get it together. If you are going to KACC Saturday, I could get it then. Needs to be 4X4 square withOUT holes in the corners but with space left for holes (we will add them). Decoration is artist choice, no theme. Paint the back and sides a flat black and remember to sign your name on the front. That's it!

There were sooooo many entries for the show! I can't wait to go back when the show opens to really look at everything. It may take a couple trips to get a good look at all of them.
