My President’s Message for this September is a reminder that the next NEORQC General Meeting is October 5th at 10:00 am. The meeting is at the Ravenna VFW located at 6000 New Milford Road, Ravenna, Ohio 44266. Remember to bring your challenge project, Zebra with a Kick. Our guest speaker is Judy Phillips, the owner of Sew Deja Vu.
Registration is over half filled for the 2025 Getaway. Mark sure you get those registrations in early to ensure your class selection. Some additional class project photos will be posted for your reference. Noon Scissor Sharpening will be on site on Saturday to sharp your scissors. The prices will be posted on the website. Also Dennis from Somewhere Sewing will be on site Saturday and Sunday for general machine cleaning and maintenance. A machine cleaning and check-up will be $60.00.
Membership renewal forms will be mailed out in November with a deadline of submission in January. With raising costs, the NEORQC Board had decided to maintain dues at the current rate of $1.00 per guild member this year. To maintain our budget, guilds upon request will be sent a digital file to print their NEORQC membership cards. We are anticipating the dues to increase slightly for 2026 to cover the operating costs of the organization including the hosting of general meetings.
Do not forget to join the NEORQC Facebook page. Organization updates are shared on the Facebook page and on the website.
Until my next President’s Message, happy quilting! See you in October.
Barbara
NEORQC President
