September Newsletter

Hi everyone! And welcome to the last half of the year.
Our opening social was so much fun and we had some really cool  fascinators. I love hanging out with all of you crafty ladies. Kay did an amazing tea party with lots, did I say LOTS?, of really good food. She will get us the recipes for the yummy food that we had. Those chicken pillows were really yum! We also got a really good selection of dresses and suits to donate to the Women’s Guild. Thank you so much to everyone for your generosity. I will let you know how that turns out.
Our next Guild meeting is on a different weekend than our normal 3rd. We will be meeting onSeptember 25, 26 and 27 for our Bill Bayer Seminar. Thursday and Friday will be one project and the 27th will be one project. These will be oil keepsakes that your family will treasure and one will have a Utah theme to it which will be very unique. Kay has also volunteered to do the food for this and we all know it will be amazing. I also love having these travel artists come and it is always fun to learn something new. Bill Bayer will be bringing everything we need to paint these two paintings. If you do happen to have any oil brushes, you might want to bring them, just in case, but everything else will be provided. Hopefully everyone can come and enjoy learning something new and make keepsakes we can enjoy in our homes.
Our theme for next year’s retreat is Bunnies, Spring and Summer, and I am looking for projects now. If you have any ideas please let me know. Kay is looking at cement bunnies and I am hoping we can get  a jump on sign-up and get some good prep time in. If there is someone we haven’t seen for a while maybe we can give them a shout out and let them know we miss them.
I hope to see everyone again soon and Happy Painting!
