Here are the things we talked about at our June Guild Meeting:
Financial Report
-All guild members were sent an email with a link to our official financial report

Tips and Tricks
-Sharon showed us how she writes numbers on her pins with a sharpie and then uses them to keep track of rows, stacks, etc.
Charity

-We are making an effort to donate our quilts to more charities that are local to us, including Utah Valley and Mountain View Hospitals, and the Women's Shelter in Provo
-Our guild would like to donate a quilt to the victims of the recent shooting at the Pulse nightclub in Orlando. For more info, look a few blog posts back. :)
