Urgent Need Locally for Face Masks

Image may contain: 2 people, text

Urgent Need For Face Masks!

Yesterday (4/15/2020) PA Gov. Wolf mandated that anyone who is in public where social distancing is not possible must wear a mask. This means that everyone who has not already received a face mask will now need one! The requests are coming into the guild at a rate that we cannot possibly fulfill but we must still do our part.

The best way to help at this time is to make and donate face masks to Tioga County PA Covid-19 Task Force so they can distribute masks where they are most needed.

Contact Susan Mc. if you need fabric or t-shirts to cut into ties.

Email tiogacountytaskforce@gmail.com and someone will contact you to arrange pickup of completed masks.

Jackie Kunkel Workshop/Program Cancelled in May

The May 18th workshop and program by our 2020 national speaker, Jackie Kunkel, has been cancelled. The guild is working with Jackie to get it rescheduled for a future time that will be both safe and convenient for all of us. Please pass the word to other members who may not have access to the internet.

In the meantime, keep stitching!

MLQG April 2020 Events Cancelled

The April 20th MLQG meeting at the Gmeiner Art & Cultural Center, as well as the April 25th upcycled clothing workshop are cancelled. Hopefully, we'll be able to meet again in May.

MLQG members -- please pass the word to other members who may not have access to this info.

We'll have an awesome show-and-tell segment when this is over!

Keep quilting, and if you're interested in what the guild is doing to make masks for our community, check the previous blog post and/or click on the "Outreach Projects" tab at the top of this blog.
