We are proud to help out
both of these awesome charities with the proceeds from this show.
Thanks to all our attendees!

A special event at the show was the donation of our
30th Anniversary quilt to the Museum. This is our
Guild President presenting the quilt with our Guild
liaison and the Museum representative.

Visitors came from all over the
world and especially West Michigan


Cookbooks were for sale and did quite well.
Thanks to the 30th Anniversary Cookbook Committee and members who donated
recipes!! Yummy treats are coming from this sale to be sure!

The Sew You Want to be a Quilter game was a HUGE
success with lots of prizes given out.
Congrats to our winners! |

Quilt Show Photo CD
available
Did you forget to bring your camera to Quilts on the Grand 2008? Your
pictures didn’t turn out? Did you miss the show altogether? (heaven
forbid!) Well, not to worry. You can remember each and every quilt in
the show by purchasing a photo CD of the 2008 show for only $10. The
photo CD includes cropped hi-resolution digital images of each and every
quilt in the 2008 show, including all the raffle quilts and the small
quilt auction quilts, and a list of the winners for each category. Pop
it into your computer and use your file manager to browse through each
image, or even play it as a slideshow. Make prints with your home
printer.Photo CD’s will be available
at the next Guild meeting, but you must
contact
Jan Lewis (click on her name to send an email or call her at
248-0659) to pre-order a copy, so she
knows how many copies to make. If you pre-reserved a copy on your show
entry form, let her know. If you would like to have your copy mailed to
you, there is an additional $2 charge to cover the cost of the padded
envelope and postage. Contact Jan to make mailing arrangements.
