Meeting Minutes

Our October meeting was another virtual Zoom meeting.  Attending were Andrea, Denise, Julie W., Katie, Virginia, Joan, Ann C., Maggie, and Jude.

Show and Tell
No  Show and Tell this month.😞

Business 
Woman in History Challenge Dolls were the main topic of discussion at this meeting.  Andrea has a hectic schedule so Katie volunteered to take over Survey Monkey for the voting on challenge dolls.  The deadline for the dolls was extended an extra week to allow a little extra time for finishing.  Members were to email pictures of their entries to the co-chairman Katie and Julie W.  Sue and Virginia will send prizes and ribbons to the winners who will be announced on Saturday, November 14 on both this blog and our Facebook page.  At our November zoom meeting we will have show and tell so entrants can reveal themselves and tell about their dolls.
We will be doing a Christmas gift mail exchange this year.  Any member who wants to participate will create a doll, small quilt, bag, ornament, or any other small gift  you wish to make (no masks - we all have enough!).The theme is "Snow" and the item must be handmade by the participant, not purchased.  You will then mail or deliver your gift to your Holiday Friend.  Sue has sent the participants the name  of their Secret Holiday Friend.  Gifts should be mailed  by December 1st  or delivered by December 10.  We will open the gifts at the December Zoom meeting on December 19th.
At the December meeting we will start making plans for next year's Challenge.  Sue suggested we continue with two challenges a year, one due in May and the other in November. In December we would plan the May Challenge and then in May plan the November Challenge.
