JUNE 2024 MEETING MINUTES

Candlelight Quilt Guild
General Meeting Minutes
June 10, 2024

September Workshop- For the September workshop with Lydia Middaugh there will be (3) kits to choose from, (2) are Chickens and (1) is a flower.  There will be a $20.00 charge for the workshop and a $30.00 kit fee ( possibly less depending on how many sign up for the class).  

QCNYS- Candlelight will be hosting the Consortium meeting Wednesday, December 4th.  We will need baked goods to serve and raffle basket items.  Please consider donating fat quarters, fabric yardage, tools, patterns, etc.  We also have to make center pieces for the tables.  We are thinking to put a FQ on a skewer to look like rose buds that will be raffled off at the meeting.

Budget Vote- A question was asked why the scholarship item was so low and response was that the scholarships in the budget are for the State Fair winners.  We discussed bringing back the guild scholarships for $60.00.  You are eligible if you pay your dues on time.  If you win you can take a class and have to present what you learned to guild members.  We decided to increase the budget by $100.00.  This will be a separate line item in the budget.  The $100 increase was voted on and passed.
