Media:  A motion was made and approved to minimize what is on the Blog and just have basic information, Clare will work on that.  It will just have general information about the guild allowing the public to realize we exist and how to get in touch with us.  We will move files to our Facebook page (By Laws, Code of Conduct, patterns we are working on, etc)  The officers will meet and figure out the details. 


Committee of Fun: This was held at the end of the meeting and Kitty had presents under the tree for every member.  Each person was able to come up and select a gift.  What a generous and FUN activity!!  Thank you, Kitty!


Charity:  Sue reported that 4 quilts have been donated to CARA (3, 4, 10 and 17 year old girls).  We are low on quilts because many were sent to Asheville.  Sue is also donating a queen size quilt to a fire victim.  Please keep the quilts coming, they are truly appreciated!!
