General Meeting Minutes
August 13, 2026
Meeting called to order by Viki West at 6:00pm.
Minutes of May, June, and July general meetings were approved, with one correction to the July 9 minutes: The Linda Ballard Trunk Show and Class will be held in October, not November, as reported.
Treasurer’s Report (Pat L.): Copies are available at entrance table.
Correspondence:
Thank-you card from Michaele Keagy of the Seashore Literacy Center was read by Nancy Hoover.
Announcements:
- Check was presented to Lincoln County Animal Shelter in the amount of $400.
- Get ‘er Done project needs a new lead to start up again in September. [Nancy Nash advised Viki that she will take that on.] Committee Reports
Community Quilters (Nancy H.)
- July donations: 10 quilts and 6 fleece blankets to Siletz foster kids; 6 baby quilts to North Lincoln Hospital; Seashore Literacy Center (quilts previously delivered to Children’s Advocacy Center were given to Seashore; we’ll now deliver directly to Seashore).
- Quilt Show Booklets: Nan sent the leftover booklets for anyone who wants a copy; those not taken will be recycled.
- She has quilts that need binding that just came in, so they don’t have the binding fabric with them. There are quilts that need to be quilted in the back as well.
Hospitality (Laurie)
Lynn reported to be sure to pick up your dish and whatever topping you brought when the ice cream social is over.
Documentation (JoAnne) Patti reported for JoAnne:
- We had quite a few sign-ups at the quilt show, some members but mostly show attendees.
- Next documentation date is Saturday, September 26, from 9:30-3:30. There are no spaces available.
- She will be working on next year’s schedule soon.
- So far, we have documented 2,191 quilts.
Membership (Patti)
- We had 6 members join at the show; one is here tonight, Laurie Piccolotti.
- We had 2 new members join tonight: Debbie and Kathy.
- Attendance tonight: 69 members (65 in person, 4 on Zoom).
- Total of 191 registered members as of today.
- Updated pages to the Membership Directory are on the entrance table to pick up.
Raffle Quilt 2026 Ticket Sales (Marianne) Sold about 3,500 tickets this year. Special mention to Ellen Hawks, who is the best “committee” she’s ever had! (Ellen declined to be thanked with a gift certificate and she sold the ticket to the person who won the quilt!) Normally, there would be a gift certificate for first, second, third place for who sold the most tickets, but it actually turned out that one person sold the most (Viki) and four people tied for second (Ruth, Tamara, Jan H., Nancy H.). So, second and third place prizes were split evenly among the four.
Merchandise (Penni)
Penni is stepping down as Merchandise lead and Joy Gutknecht has stepped up into the position. Joy is looking for a helper. Penni demonstrated the three logos we’ve used, the variety of sizes, and products for sale: Canvas bag on sale tonight for $10; little lunch bags in red, teal, and pink for $20; new washable bags for $15. Penni distributed the OCQG black tote bags to whoever wanted one. Items are not yet online, but working on it.
2027 Retreat (Viki)
- Next year’s retreat will be on April 20-23. Registration starts in October. Fee: $395 for inside rooms; $210 for RVs.
- Also, they have 3 Ott lights for sale for $25 each. Lighting has changed at the venue and the Ott lights are no longer needed. Viki will bring to October meeting.
Veteran’s Project (Rose)
- Project started in 2016, and they’ve presented 751 quilts to date. We so appreciate everyone who contributes to the project.
- Have 38 people on the list for quilts; 12 at the moment to present at the November meeting of the guild to honor women vets.
- Have 2 quilts at the meeting if anyone wants to take to one to quilt.
- Meet at Siletz Grange 9:00-3:00 on the fourth Thursday of the month.
Programs & Workshops (Pamela, Lynn)
- September: De-Stash Dance (Silent auction to get rid of extra stuff!) Forms are online; let Pamela know if you need a hard copy of the form.
- October: Linda Ballard Trunk Show and consider signing up for her class, called “Take Five.” Fee: $55. Also, October 24-25 is the next All-Star Sampler Platter. Guild pays for all members to have access to this online, two-day, live presentation by a variety of instructors. But the presentation is available for 7 days following the live show, so you can watch it at your leisure during that period.
- November: Veterans Project quilt presentations to women veterans; Community Quilts Sew-In for the holidays. It’s a fun sew-in and Nancy H. will have information about it soon, with samples of types of projects to sew (not quilts).
- December: Holiday Potluck
Pamela presented two kits that are available for quilts to make for the Siletz foster kid project.
Quilt Show (Cindy M.)
Thank you to everyone who worked on making the quilt show happen. So much work by, really, so few people put together something pretty neat.
- Viewers’ Choice Ballots: Gloria Zirges won first place with “Sadie on Silk.” Cindy will hold off reading the second and third place winners, because they’re not present and she would like to honor them in the group when they are at the meeting—more fun surprise for them.
- Attendance about 800-900 people. Lots of reasons why that could be: the weekend was wrong, expense of staying in Newport is way up this year, parking is a problem.
- Encouraged people to volunteer for next year.
- Darcy registered about 81 quilts from members and encouraged people to think about entering their quilts in the show next year. The quilt show is a place to showcase our work, whether beginner or not, and encouraged us to have an entry from every member next year!
- Ribbon Winners Display followed. Nan has made a slide show of the quilts you can see on the website
Raffles:
Quilters Surprise: Chris B., Mini-mat
Nifty Notions: Darcy, 28mm rotary cutter w/tape measure/dogear clipper tool
Boutique (Gail) Check the table as you leave for any item that you may have left behind. Also, took in $13,600 at the Boutique and 15% of that goes to the Guild.
