Upcoming Georgia QB Meeting at Intown Quilters, Decatur, Ga
 
Ok, Folks, here we go again....
I'm in touch with Sarah at Intown Quilters for our next meeting: possible dates for her are 12/17 or 12/31 or 1/21 or 1/28 for Saturdays .

Can I get a quick show of hands on who can come on which days so we can go ahead and book it? Thanks and I hope more of you will be able to make this one on s Sat.

We'll do a pot luck, show & tell, and maybe some sewing, certainly lots of shopping
:)

I think that any of the dates except for 12/31 would work for me.

Mgrubbs 11-18-2011 01:35 PM

I think 12-17 or 1-21 would be open for me. Thanks! Mgrubbs

I think that either of the January dates would work for me. December is just too busy!

rustqlts 11-18-2011 01:50 PM

Jo, I'm still tethered to oxygen 24/7 (probably several more months) so I won't be able to make the meeting. Have a bunch of fun, no matter which day it is!

Helen Marie 11-18-2011 02:15 PM

I wish I could join in the fun, but my husband's health prevents me from attending. Y'all have fun!

January would probably work better for me.

DeneK 11-18-2011 02:45 PM

January w/b better for me.

Suzi P 11-18-2011 02:58 PM

January is definitely better. I also would love the opportunity to either speak to the group sometime in the future or to any of the area guilds. I have a new book coming out about Barn quilts--the painted quilts on barns that are all across the country. I've done a couple of presenations--most recently in Peachtree City with the Southern Crescent ladies, and the interest has been terrifics!

Here is a link to my blog; let me know if anyone is interested in putting something together.

All the proposed dates are good for me. Yes, GrannyJan, we met at A Scarlet Thread on the 4th and had a lovely time with shopping/eating/show&tell and a pineapple ruler presentation. Weren't many of us but I believe all there enjoyed themselves. And Mona figured out my stitch length selector problem on my new machine! Very much appreciated, used the machine to paper-piece the next weekend at a guild sew-in. Thanks again Mona!

cjc 11-18-2011 06:08 PM

Right now the only date I have open is 1/21

Kaye 11-18-2011 06:19 PM

December is better for me; the other two dates are already booked (one is a sewing retreat with American Sewing Guild in Macon)

joyce888 11-18-2011 07:19 PM

Definitely Jan. is better then Dec.

Thanks, Joyce

Rann 11-18-2011 08:58 PM

January is better for me.

teacherbailey 11-19-2011 03:00 AM

January dates are better for me than December. I'd love to know more about barn quilts (are there any in GA???) or I'm open to learning about anything that anybody wants to present....so I'll try to make a January date if one is chosen. I'm not doing much with this board due to not learning it yet (and no time to get used to it) so please PM me when the date is chosen; that will pop up in my email and I'll know to check here. Thanks!

Ann63 11-19-2011 04:32 AM

January dates would work for me better also, December is very busy and I have family that will be here for the holidays.

shortstuff 11-19-2011 08:03 AM

Unsure have a lot going on both months

quiltmaker52 11-19-2011 08:25 AM

Sorry, but I can't make any of the days.

quilting.addict 11-19-2011 08:53 AM

Hey y'all, I really meant to make the Scarlet Thread trip, but did not hear about the details...too busy quilting and not on the board much...any of those dates would get me to Intown!!

It's a very easy walk in area, my mother used to do oxygen, we could help you in with a portable tank. I know it's not so easy, but maybe it would help you to get out and come to it:)

Helen6869 11-19-2011 10:01 AM

boxerlady 11-19-2011 11:07 AM

Would love to, but have too much going on in both months.

patsyo56721 11-19-2011 11:09 AM

I will not be able to come.

Phannie1 11-19-2011 11:37 AM

January 21th is best for me. I will notify my guild too. Anyone else from the coastal area, I would be willing to drive. Phannie.

jeanne307 11-19-2011 11:49 AM

hello... I am not available on any saturdays or sundays. I care for my mom and have no one to sit with her on the weekends. Thanks for letting me know though and you guys have fun.

Tippynan 11-19-2011 11:52 AM

January will fit my schedule better

Normandy 11-19-2011 12:01 PM

I am not active with this board, but I would like to make the meeting if it's held in January. December is too full.

Annette in Eatonton

Momyar 11-19-2011 02:50 PM

I could make....
 
December but not January. Looking at ankle surgery sometime in January. Have no definite date yet.

But still interested in coming. Just needs to be a Saturday or Sunday for sure.

Georgia girl 11-19-2011 04:04 PM

Sound like fun, but don't count on me this time. Thanks.

Kim Bohannon 11-19-2011 04:26 PM

So sorry I will not be able to attend. I hope you all have fun!

At this point, these work for me.

MonkeeGirl 11-19-2011 05:18 PM

Won't know until that day arrives...I have a seriously ill father that is day by day. Will come if possible.

southernmema 11-20-2011 05:39 AM

January would be better for me.

SherrieDLux 11-20-2011 05:57 AM

I think you sent this to the wrong person. Sorry

NanaKathy55 11-20-2011 06:45 AM

Jan is better for me..Also I am in a wheelchair..are there steps?? Can you let me know
Thanks
Kathy

olebat 11-20-2011 08:05 AM

​The two dates in Jan are both open for me. Get one nailed down before my calender gets full.(Ha Ha). Looking forward to the meet-up. Thanks for organizing these. They really are sew much fun. I like the idea of a cutting bee, where everyone brings fabric and cutting tools, and we cut different size strips, have a swapping frenzy, and then sew our strips. F&P had it on one of their broadcasts. Sounded fun.

Eva Knight 11-20-2011 10:43 AM

Jan would br best.
