Sorry! I can answer either question.
I had received an email from the guild and there was a short discussion at our next meeting but these items did not come up. I do know that someone from our guild checked the "bus schedule" and the folks who were scheduled after us were advised of our situation. I really don't know how these groups made out.
So much for what was expected to be a fun weekend. Classes were scheduled for Saturday, patterns had been purchased, supplies were in hand. A lecture/demo was scheduled for Sunday afternoon. Some of the folks who came on Saturday not knowing about the cancellation came a long distance.
On the brighter side, Alex Anderson will be at a quilt shop (which also sells the Bernina) on May 10. We have to travel for an hour but I am sure it will be worth the trip and of course, we can also shop at this shop as well as another that is nearby. Looking forward to this event.
