We can start selling the raffle tickets for our “Lanai” quilt. The charity that will be receiving a portion of our proceeds will be voted on at the April meeting. Be sure to stop by and pick up a packet of tickets to sell. This is a beautiful quilt and anyone would be thrilled to win it. The winning ticket will be drawn at the July general meeting. All Stars is a 501 © 3 organization and registered with the State of Florida to hold legal raffles...so sell those tickets
Check out the charities that  are being considered for this year's Raffle Quilt proceeds.  They are found under Service-Community Quilts.

PROGRAMS

Each month our General Meeting features an educational program.  Members and guests enjoy group presentations, lectures, trunk shows, hands-on projects and speakers, nationally known or local.
​April 19 – Presentation by Kathy Metalica Cray.   Kathy will present a program entitled “One Hundred Years of Antique Quilts – 1830 through 1930.”    If members have antique quilts they would like to learn about, she will be happy to look at them and give some history about the quilts.

​​March 15 – Presentation by Danisse from Miss D’s in Palatka. Danisse  discussed the differences between print and digital fabric and  included examples of both types of fabric. She  also discussed how fabric production is scheduled, when designers start designing to meet production schedules and how inventory is managed. This may be of help to those of us who see a quilt in a magazine and find that the fabric used in the quilt is no longer in print.

Watch for zoom meetings. Members will be notified in   an e-mail.

EDUCATION

Check out the progress   of the participants in Sunnie Malesky's  Mystery Quilt class.  
Both beginners and long-time quilters enjoy classes offered by the All Star Quilters' Guild.  Usually one is scheduled every month and is taught either by our members, or local or nationally known teachers.  A variety of topics and projects are planned each year, so there is something to interest everyone.
