Well it is that time of year again, fall is in the air, and the holidays begin. Just a reminder that the library books will be on sale this month at the guild meeting. Hopefully everyone is working on their show entries. Not much to tell except to enjoy the change of season and keep on stitching.

Sunshine and Shadows

Sue Maze 4th VP-Communication

Communication is a two-way street. As chairman of this office I can’t do it alone. My mailbox has been empty the last couple of meetings. That could mean all is well. If all is not well, you have the opportunity to let the group know by way of the mailbox on The Beehive table. White cards are for any type of comments, yellow cards are for sunshine reports, and blue cards are for shadow reports. These cards need to be filled out if the rest of the group is to be made aware of what is going on. I want to thank you now for your help. You can also let me know by phone or text at 214-549-4910 or email at [email protected].
