President`s Message
Hello Quilting Friends,

One of the things I love most about our guild is that it feels so much like a quilt itself—made up of many different colors, styles, stories, and talents, all stitched together with care. Each member brings something special, and when we come together, we create something so beautiful.

Quilting has a wonderful way of reminding us that progress does not have to be perfect. Sometimes the pieces do not line up exactly as planned, a color choice surprises us, or we find ourselves unpicking a few stitches and trying again. But that is part of the process—and part of the joy. With every project, we learn, grow, and discover new possibilities. The same is true for our guild. Every meeting, workshop, and conversation gives us a chance to encourage one another, share what we know, and celebrate creativity in all its forms.

I also want to thank everyone who gives their time, energy, and heart to make this guild such a welcoming place. Whether you help behind the scenes, bring quilts for show and tell, lend a hand at events, or simply offer a kind word to a fellow member, you are helping keep this community vibrant and inspiring. Those small acts of generosity truly matter.

Let’s keep sharing our ideas, our enthusiasm, and our love of quilting. Every stitch tells a story, and together we are creating a wonderful one.

USING A QUILTER'S CLAPPER FOR PRESSING

 

Happy May 2026.  I love the "May Day is Lei Day" custom in Hawaii.  Everyone is decked out in beautiful flower circlets and the aroma is heavenly.  Here in our neck of the woods, May First can be a flower celebration of sorts with people wearing flowers and dancing around a May pole.  

This month we have Cinco de Mayo, Mother's Day,  Armed Forces Day, and Memorial Day.  Some other fun days I may celebrate:  May 11 Eat What You Want Day, May 14 Dance Like a Chicken Day, and May 26 Blueberry Cheesecake Day.  Lots to look forward to, especially, that cheesecake.  Actually, it might be fun to dance like a chicken while eating blueberry cheesecake, that would encompass all three days at once.  

This month's tidbit deals with the use of a quilter's clapper for pressing fabric, quilt blocks, and seams.  One of the great tools I purchased recently is a Riley Blake block pressing clapper that measures 8 x 10.  It is big, has a nice heft, and really has made a positive difference in the flatness of the seams on my projects.
