2025 Guild Challenge – Trips & Travels

A couple of reminders:

Your quilt “story,” picture and quilt dimensions MUST be submitted no later than June 1. Please email them to BOTH: Nan (Nan.Scott@oregonstate.edu) and Darcy (Darcy.delaRosa@gmail.com). This will allow us to get the website set up for voting.  

NOTE: Send a picture that represents your quilt in the very best light. Make sure that the whole quilt is in the picture and that you’re taking the picture “straight on” so that there is as little warping as possible (for example, where the top appears larger than the bottom). 

Your quilt needs to be given to Joy Johnson before the June guild meeting or brought to the guild meeting June 12 NO LATER THAN 5:00 PM. This will allow time for the quilts to be hung and viewed at the meeting.

Voting will take place ONLY online on the guild website. Voting will open after the guild meeting on June 12. Voting will close on July 20. 

ALL challenge quilts will be displayed at the Quilt Show August 1 & 2. They will NOT be available to pick up on Saturday 8/2 with the rest of your quilts. They WILL be available at the guild meeting on August 14. If you are unable to attend the August guild meeting, please arrange with Joy for an alternate time.

Quilt Show Rack Cards

Looking for members going to a quilt shop outside of Lincoln County or the Salem area. I need your help in distributing the rack cards to as many quilt shops as possible. Please contact me at 541-619-1490 or jmsylvester46@gmail.com.

Help Needed to Register Quilts

Is anyone available to help register quilts for the folks in the Lincoln City area? It would likely include both registering quilts, taking pictures of the quilts and emailing the pictures to the registrar (Darcy).

Time is flexible, but perhaps the most convenient time would be when the Lincoln City Quilters meet, which is every Tuesday and Thursday, beginning at 8 am at the LC Community Center at 2150 NE Oar Place.

Your help would be greatly appreciated!

“Finally Finished” in June

Quilty Friends: We have had some wonderful programs and classes so far this year. As we move into summer and preparation for our August quilt show, we turn our focus away from classes and work to finishing those projects that we would like to submit to the show or gifts we have committed to sharing with family and friends.

Our June meeting topic is, “Finally Finished . . . .”  This is separate from the Get-er-Done project that has inspired many of us to finish what we started. Deadlines can be great motivators for some; others of us need to gently approach those projects calling us to completion . . . .

What have you completed recently? Bring your Finally Finished projects to our June meeting and share your stories!
