Newsletter Editor: Dorothy Moyle-Smith 3312 State Hwy 70 ohohnursie@gmail.com Oroville, Ca (530) orovillepiecemakers.org Officers President: Marla Vaughn: Vice-President: Dorothy Welton Treasurer: Sharon Helton Secretary: Jan Abramson Moonlighters Pres: Yvonne Ogletree PRESIDENT S MESSAGE I had the opportunity to visit four different quilt guilds in the past month: North Wind Quilters Guild, Fairfield; Petaluma Quilt Guild, Petaluma; Moonlight Quilters of Sonoma County, Santa Rosa; and Flying Needles Quilt Guild, Woodland. The feeling is the same in every one of these places. They all have a love for quilting and the desire to share what they do and know. The meetings were comfortable and familiar. I sincerely hope that everyone who visits or participates in our guild is given the same warm welcome that I experienced on my visits. They were also very generous when buying tickets for our opportunity quilt. Marla Vaughn V-President: The Program for May will feature a trunk show, that is a collaboration of two long-time quilters in our guild. Terry Catt will lead off with a selection of her projects from over the years, followed by Claudia Goebl (featured quilter at our next quilt show). Claudia will be sharing with us some of her earlier works, and just enough variety, to whet our appetites for the quilt show. I am sure this will be great fun for all of us. See you then.
